  • Which throttle servo

    Well I was flying my 700 and the throttle response was acting up and I landed it and saw throttle servo twitching and then died.its. ds610. Now I don't want to take chances and I need a reliable throttle servo to work at the same voltage ,which one shall i buy?.plus I'm using align 2in1

    I ahd a ds620 go bad on my 600n throttle within a month..replaced it with a ds610 and its been fine for over a year.
    I also had a futaba 9252 go bad on my gasser
    Sh*t happens. Throttle linkages can propagate vibration and none of this stuff is totally bulletproof.

    Not so bad if you spot it..worse if it jams wide open. It's what throttle hold and auto practice is for :-)

          I think the 610 is ok for throttle it's all I use them for. I think the Hitec digitals are also good for throttle, 5645 I think is the number.

                Any JR servo will run on 4.8v

                The issue arises when we get up to 6.0v but I'm not going there honest

                Servos fail, accept it, buy a new one of whatever flavour and get on with it. On your throttle you can use anything pretty much. even if you are a 3D god using the latest governors you don't really need to be too picky

                          Hey Waz, I think I missed your early posts and your signature/profile doesn't give much away.

                          We know you are in London, how about telling us a bit about yourself ?

                            DS610 equivilents ? and prices.
                            Also how does MKS compare to align power wise ? - DS610's are fairly hungry but I've not had one fail yet.

                              I use an S3152 in three different helis. Not the fastest, but good enough for the task. Nice and cheap too
