Rudder, Throttle, Mixture, Trim tabs. Must be compatiable with Multiplex receivers/transmitter combination. Currently using some old Futabas. Thanks, Leon Regards, Leon www.lmracing.co.uk

Forgot this : Transmitter > Futaba FC18+V3 ... On PCM-41.00MHz / Receiver : R-136F (6ch) Last Edited By: HendricX 10/26/08 08:35:50. Edited 1 times.

Would you actually notice a speed difference of... example 0.05 sec/60deg on say Rudder or Throttle? Or is there a minimum speed that people go for? Cheers Regards, Leon www.lmracing.co.uk

Although your imagination does play a big part. The Futaba Brushless servos sound very nice with very high torque and sound possibly more reliable. There is just so much choice with very little difference. Also i wanted to go digital for most of the servos, although trim tabs aren't as important. Regards, Leon www.lmracing.co.uk

Posts: 3 (10/26/08 07:54:32) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I think you can't go wrong with one of the big brands (MPX, Futaba, Hitec, perhaps Graupner too) if you buy an upperclass servo. I've never had problems with MPX and Hitec Servos and I've never heard bad about Futaba. I personally prefer strong digi Servos on the trim tabs, first I used lowbudget Servos (~5kg, no Digi) and my T5 "wobbles" on the straight, with the stronger Digi Servos it was no problem. But now I have other problems with it which do not depend the Servos...no easy boat I think

Posts: 370 (10/27/08 06:54:09) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Sorry guys but the 9351 is a bad servo, the older 9350 is better in reability, 9351 breaks the gear inside easily. I use BLS 351, very good servo. Leon can you contact me, +46703992989 or email fredrick.cederberg@bredband.net

Posts: 712 (10/27/08 22:29:58) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I used to use only Futaba servo. later some GWS back to all Futaba later In my EVO5 I found problem with 9402 so that I switched to Sanwa ERG-VZ 0.1sec, 13kg.cm, all metal gear. Only time and race can tell the result. Throttle servo 9402 in EVO5, 9650 in Pegasus, Ikarus and Lightning I try to used all standard size servo unless there is space problem My old Pegasus used digital servo for trim tab Trim tab servo of EVO5 is 3002, all new boats will use 3002 as trim tab servo However, my mind is changing all the time.

In the 3.5 rudder is Sanwa ERG VZ and all others GWS Park HPX. I found the Sanwa to be the most reliable servo I've ever used. Dave Tuning software

News from Hitec I don't know. 2 season I'am using Multiplex (and Graupner) - no problems.

Posts: 92 (01/29/09 00:43:32) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I finally went for the same Hitec servo for the throttle and mixture. It looks very nicely made but as you say we will soon see how good it is! I also brought the Futaba BLS351 and BLS 352 to compare for the Rudder servo. These look very nice. Now all i need is a Boat to put them in!!! Regards, Leon www.lmracing.co.uk

Posts: 725 (01/29/09 03:25:08) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I am still using Futaba S9650 as throttle servo which is proven workable. The Hitec is for trim tab and mixture. I will use it as throttle servo after its reliability is proven.
