Sanwa Tail Servo

[Steve]

Sanwa Hyper ERG-RZ Super High Speed Servo

Spec:

Speed : 0.07sec/60 degree at 6.0V
Torque: 8.0kg-cm at 6.0V
Size : 39.0 x 20.0 x 37.4mm
Weight: 60g

8kg tail servo with 0.07 seconds at 6V. That must be appealing to all those who run a 6V system, and it's very strong for a tail servo as well.

I've only found it on foreign websites, so can't really comment on price, although it looks to be just a few quid more than a 9254.

In my experience with Sanwa servos in planes over the years, they've always been very good, and nearly always slightly better spec than their Futaba equivalents at the same price i.e. the Sanwa 102 is slightly better than its Futaba equivalent - the 148. Similarly for the Sanwa 112 is slightly better than the Futaba 3001 etc.

Any thoughts?

Nobody cares about this (what appears to be excellent) servo then?

Is that just because it's a Sanwa?

Don't forget that Airtronics (Sanwa in the USA) are just about the single biggest seller of RC gear over there, so this stuff shouldn't really be ignored.
