Alternative Servos

I am finding that conventional radio control servos are just too noisy. So, would Dynamixel, Feetech, LewanSoul or LynxMotion be an affordable alternative for a beginner?

Have you used the EZ-Robot HDD servos? They don't make much noise and are stronger and quieter than comparably priced dynamixels.

Very impressive!!! So, please excuse my ignorance, but do these HDD servos just have ezrobot HD written on them?

Herr ball is correct. The HD servos have HD written on them, and they’re quite loud. The HDD servos have HDD written in them, and they’re quiet.

I posted a video above that explains

@barnardsb, From what I hear in the video it says, Jermie (the lead engineer at EZ Robot) designed and implemented the EZ Robot HDD servos. That tells me these are not generic servos that EZ Robot painted their name on. EZ Robot actually designed them for their sale.
