    Not bad for under 8 quid, especially as it plugs into a usb for portable charging . I just wish they only did one colour, I just can't decide

        I have used servo centreing devices before and always found that they never seem to correlate with the centre points of the vbar or whatever gyro your using.

        If it worked accurately then it would be really handy to have one for building but if it doesn't hold the same centre as the vbar then its no use.

        I know in theory they should hold the same centre since what matters is pulse width but somehow never works the same (from my experience) - maybe this new one is better?

          wouldn't waste my money on that tbh, some servos fit from the inside of the frame as far as helis go so you would have to remove the horn that you've just fitted with that useless bit of kit lol. Whats wrong with fitting them whilst on the heli?

              Neat, but not something I'd use.

              Horns go on when I'm doing the set-up with the tx active and not before.

              May have more use in fixed wing builds though ...

                Why not just use a servo tester, does the same thing but also has a manual mode so you can see if there's any binding and also an automatic wiper mode so you can set cheap servos going to test if they're any good?? You can pick them up for £2.75 plus P&P for example...

                  Not for me either as I only run vbars which as you know have there own centre once you have gone through the set-up procedure !
