2002 Kit Hitec Servo Part Number

These links may help: [...]

Thanks sanddrag, but I don't wish to guess. I need to have someone verify the exact part number, as I have an unusual idea and wish to examine that servo before the contest cycle starts to know if it's even feasible. Can someone please verify the exact part number used?

BTW, WRT to the parts, yea the HS-303 was discontinued. It's also interesting that the HS-311 does NOT appear on Hitec's "all servo" list at:

Hmmm... Maybe that list just not up to date yet. The HS-311 does have the right specs, too...

WRT the FIRST list, I was in the contest with another team last year and already have all of those docs. The problem is that the FIRST "List of Components" in the 90 page 25.5MB KIT_P_HLIST.PDF" doc on the link you show does NOT show the manufacturer's true part number for each supplied part. Many of the data sheets further down are "family" sheets too, covering many variants of the parts. Unless you have a part in hand (which I don't anymore), it is often difficult to tell which of the family you have for any particular part.

That's why I'm still hoping someone actually took the time to make an exact parts list for the 2002 kit, with the true manufacturer's part numbers for the specific instance of each part. I did that for a few of the parts, but man oh man, at times it was a real pain to track down some of them. Unfortunately, I don't even have that partial list anymore.

Did anyone out there bother to make a REAL parts list for the kit, with the EXACT part numbers for each part?
