Introduction
The RC OMG LP-BM10S Low Profile Servo is the latest addition to the D2 series servo line-up. It is a powerful, accurate, high speed and high precision digital servo. The servo has an anodize aluminum band, titanium internal gears, a precision brushless motor and improved circuitry for legendary performance and beauty. Previous versions of RC OMG servos had the servo ear mounts lower on the servo body, this version effectively restores it to traditional mounting height.

Overall Quality
We have been very impressed with the quality and durability of RC OMG servos. They are well packaged to includes aluminum servo arms and fastening hardware associated with it. The LP-BM10S servo MSRP for $88.99USD. The low profile metal servo is a nice look from a conventional full size servo. This servo is marketed by RC OMG as the RC Drift RWD servo. The servo is more costly but the performance and durability is worth the cost. The aluminum heatsink center body on this servo is a red color. The combination of brushed aluminum body and red central body enhances their aesthetic appeal.
The speed and precision of these servos have continue to exceed our expectations. The OMG servo’s are very durable, we still operate first generation RC OMG car servos. This servo is actuated by a brushless motor for better speed and response. The all metal gear internal construction adds to the durability and precision. This may be higher priced and there are cheaper alternatives out there but the value is in the product. Overall this is a very well manufactured product with legendary performance.
Overall Performance
The LP-BM10S low profile servos performed very well. This servo is very fast and accurate, it centers without any difficulty. The new fiber reinforced plastic case adds rigidity to the servo complete with an aluminum band for cooling. The brushless motor adds to the performance of the servo. Compared to the full size servo it does not lose out by its low profile size. Overall we are very impressed with the performance of this servo!
