  • Servo for Trex 500

    I have a friend who has stripped a gear on his Trex 500 ( align DS510M ) it seems they have been discontinued & we can’t find
    any servos or gears , SO what other servos will fit ? Or if anybody knows where wee can find one for sale , it’s a old Heli so he doesn’t
    want to spend a lot of money on it , any info on what servos will fit would be appreciated so we can look on eBay etc for a replacment set
    regards kenny d

    I'm pretty sure I have a gearset for the 510, I'll have a look in just a sec. Are the DS515 gears not compatible?

        Man, I'm really out of touch! So is the 535 the main Align 500 / mid size servo now? I have an old style Trex 500 I started building up and I started thinking about servos a while back and was going to see if Turnigy or KST has something but I always assumed I could get 515s

            Looks like the DS535 is now the servo supplied with the Trex 500 , also looks like the DS530 may still be available
            BUT not the DS510 or DS515 , hence why we are looking for DS510M gears or a servo
            im sure there will be savox or HK equivalent , it would be better for him if he can find a DS510M gears/servo
            do you think you have gears or servo you want to part with ?

              Away on holiday at the moment, but have got a good half dozen 510 servos at home. If you can wait till the end of the month, will check them out and get back to you

                I really thought so but I have looked and so far have not seen any. I will look again though. All my heli stuff is still very disorganised after my house move last year and I have not gone through it all to sort through everything.

                  I think they do a DS510 which is plastic gears and the DS510M which is metal gears , it is the DS510M he is after
                  I’ll speak to him Tomorrow & see what he wants to do , thanks for all the help , with your help looks like we’ll get it fixed one way or another
                  kind regards kenny d

                    Ahhh, I only ever used the plastic gears so I would not have the metal ones unfortunately.
