I use this servo with the HC-SR04. Everything works great! Turns smoothly. It is a pity a little strong noise. Small but powerful servo. I advise you to buy.
The wire on this servo is 6 inches. You can use it on ailerons but remember it is for ultra light park flyers, it has a rated torque of 1500 g at 6 volts. Torque values will be less if you run 4.8 volts, which is what most small ESCs put out.
OK! I think I've discovered by myself ... I used the wrong screws! Chrome screws are to hold the housing to a support, he had to take the little black screws to screw the rotor arm to the servo ... is that I'm wrong or what is my mistake?
I used this exact same servo for the same purpose and everything works fine but the range of movement is not the greatest nor is this the smoothest servo for use with a camera gimbal.
There is a little variation in the casings. Maybe some might sag or distort slightly when cooling during manufacture. I prefer to cut my housings tailored for each item. If you are purchasing, then go slightly oversize.
These will fit as well as others in the same class. They are a good servo for their price. Watch out for the weak flange when fixing. It is easy to break the plastic. To make the servo lighter, the moulding is finer. I find it is easy to allow for this if you are careful.
I had one that moved up and down without input. After some tests I found out it was affected by harmonic distortion from the motor at certain RPM's. I now fully apply power while watching the servo's to make sure the harmonics are compatible.
They run great at 5v , 6v its the max voltage. I totally reccomend it, they re fast and powerful. I had used them with a 5v bec. I hope this was useful to you.
used them on a 450 heli for a while. strength and speed are fine at 5v(sport, scale and very mild 3d)however the servo arms provided are a bit loose and may cause recentering issues on swash applications if not checked closely. I used a bit of tin foil to tighten the servo arm fit.
5V is OK. I use them for my cyclic on a EXI-250. Excellent response. Wires are quite fragile, so be careful when mouintung them. (i cuted two times the wires and did shortings with big tops radio...)
They will run fine at 5v. You will find that the operating arc is a little larger than say the HXT900. Response is also more than adequate in aeroplanes. Watch out for delicate flange moulding.
Spare gears are not supplied in the purchase pack. You can obtain spares in the usual way when you bust something - remove the part, measure and then check your suppliers etc if your **** box is empty. Or you could choose to replace the servo.
This servo should not be used in a 450 heli. It's to weak for cyclic and to slow for the tail. It's a fine servo. I have 6 but I use them for lite duty like ailerons in a foamy. They could work in a 250 or smaller heli.
Yes. I've done that many times. No problems. Good arc. I'm reinstalling one that has already given over 90 hours of flying service. Very reliable. The key is to install and set up CORRECTLY.
No, this servos are not digital, this are analog servos. i use them on my 2 m sailplane with a hitec eclipse 7 radio on 72 mhz, andt hey work very nice, centers good and don't have any jitters. regards Mario
I in confusion??? :(
On a site the following information is specified:
Torque: 1.7kg/cm
but on packing other value of this parametre is specified:
Torque: 1.5kg/cm
What of them - truthful?
But I would never use these small servos on 1,7kg/cm...small planes with about 800g and 1m wingspan, you can use it, but for your safety no bigger planes. I use it on a singlewing of about 140cm wingspan as aileron servos it works but the plane isn't really fast so the forces are low.
Actually, none of these are really correct, the real torque is about 1.3 kg/cm, but it is more than enough for a 1.5 meter plane or even bigger, but if you are going with something bigger than 2 meters you should consider buying more powerful servos.
Torque varies in accordance with both current and voltage. It all depends on how much power you put into the thing and how constant your supply remains through your flight. Let's be fair to the little beggars. They're a good servo and I run mine at 5.5v constant. They are slightly lighter than the legendary HXT900, they are a little quieter. They are definitely a little stronger. They will last as long as others in the same price range, too. I have apair of these operating the flaps of a
because of the packaging weight *)
For shipping the TOTAL WEIGHT has to be calculated so there's a packaging weight AND the items weight on every product page.
Hope I could help
Just put mine in a 250 GT and they are smooth and fast, center well and weigh in under 7grams. They are better than the hxt 900 which I have had in my flasher 450 for about 80 flights. They appear to have better resolution. Fantastic servo will be buying these from know on. And they are dirt cheap. You have to love HC........The hxt900 are good but these are better!
They have better resolution than the hxt900. However they have a smaller output spline and the mounting tabs are much thinner and quite brittle, so it's maybe not so robust.
Those servos are comparable to the HXT500. 0.2 gram heavier than the HXT500, and 4 gram lighter than the HXT900. They have much more power and streps than the HXT500. However, they are not nearly as strong as the HXT900, which is expected since they are in lower weight class. You cannot use those in applications that require the HXT900, they do not have the same power.
No, not better, just different. I use both and place them according to the respective strengths. These are lighter, a bit quieter, they have a slightly greater operational arc (effective push pull), and they might have a slightly stronger push. The HXT is cheaper, it has a smash-proof and rugged casing that can be glued, crushed, thumped and abused yet still perform. It can be ripped out of one such installation, cleaned up and then banged somewhere else. You can set it and forget it. In co
NO!!! Torque: 1.7kg/cm Torque: 1.3kg/cm or LOW(E-Sky ES070A-1.3kg/sm)

The mounting flange is very weak & brittle. You can damage the servo by tightening the mounting screws. Bought two packs, damaged four. Only 2 usable.

I have bought 8 of these and all work and centers very well.Actually I checked them with my Graupner MX-16,with the triming button.They appear to move on every singel click i make.As a matter of fact they have almost none space betwen the gears.By studing the servo I found out that this is acctually the C 231.Check it yourself.P.S.No wonder it works with MX-16 like on grease.

these are exactly the same as the esky servos , i even swapped some of the gears from the esky to the turnigy... they are excellent for the price , they do the job well , i have them on the trex 450 , i dont need them for any kind of 3d , just for basic hovering. they are a bit noisy thats all , but im cool with it.

Great servo. This appear to be the same as e-esky 8g digital servo.
