savox servos

[brainzzz]

im thinking of changing the tail servo on my flasher 450 to a Savox SH-0257 Digital Metal Gear Micro Servo

Speed (sec/60°): 0.09
Torque (kg-cm/oz-in): 2.2/30.5
Gear: Metal
Case: Aluminium


and can get them local to me for £15 . i do have a couple of savox serxo's (not micro) in a 1/5th scale car to run the hydrolic brakes and there very good...fast and powerful...

has any one used the micro savox

No, but for £15 i'd give them a shot for sure.

I've just replaced my tail servo though with a 65MG and the thing is awesome , costs more though.

An HS65MG ?

Not an obvious candidate for a tail servo, IMO.

Your quite right, sorry my mistake it wasnt that at all



HSG5084 Dig. Tail Servo - This however is working really well

Torque: 21 / 26 oz.in (4.8v/6v) 1.5 / 1.9 kg.cm
Speed: 0.07 / 0.05 sec @ 60 deg.
Bushing Or Bearing: Bearing
Gear Type: Metal

I run Savox servos in my FBL Trex 500 and they are very good

0.09 is a little slow for a tail, however, perfect for cyclic.

The tail should hold better with a faster servo such as DS420.

●Stall torque:0.75kg.cm(4.8V)
1.0kg.cm(6.0V)
●Motion speed:0.08sec/60°(4.8V)
0.06sec/60°(6.0V)
●Rating voltageC 4.8-6V
●Temperature range:-20°C~+60°C
●Dimension:22.8 x 12 x 25.4mm
●Weight:12.7g
●1520μs standard band

However, due to the low torque of micro servos, I would recommend a mid servo such as the Align DS520.

●Stall torque:1.9kg.cm(4.8V)
2.5kg.cm(6.0V)
●Motion speed:0.09sec/60°(4.8V)
0.07sec/60°(6.0V)
●Rating voltageC 4.8-6V
●Temperature range:-20°C~+60°C
●Dimension:35 x 15 x 29.2mm
●Weight:25.9g
●1520μs standard band

Upgrading from a micro to mid DS520 tail servo has worked very well on two Blade 400's and the additional weight was easily balanced by moving the pack forward.

Don't Savox make Align's servos for them?

That's the rumour but nothing confirmed.
