Default Futaba S9156

I was talking to Frank Noll today about the new S9156's that will be released in a couple of months. The specs are as follows:

4.8V
Torque 20.6KG (286 oz-in)
Speed 0.21sec/60 deg

6V
Torque 24.5kg-cm (340 oz-in) at 6.0V
Speed 0.17sec/60 deg at 6.0V

Weight- 63g.
Size- 1.6x.8x1.4 inches (40x20x36.6mm)

These are true standard size. I am looking forward to these for sure. It also looks like the brushless servos are right around the corner as well.

I bet they are pricey

Futaba should come down if they want to compete.

Stainless Skills,
Quality typically comes at a price. I have over 500 flights on the 9152's that are currently in my Budlight Yak and they are still smooth with no slop. Both Jr and Futaba make quality products. I've used both over the last 28 years and the improvements are immeasurable.

Very true Mark. I have the same exact servos in my Colombo Anderson Extra that I have had for 3.5 years. The servos act and feel exactly the same as when I first put them in the plane. These are 9451's, 9351's, and 9152's. I cant wait for this new servo to hit the market.
The brushless servos should last 5 times longer from the spec sheets. The price of the servos are just about the same as every other company so I dont see a problem there.

Mark, I'm anxious to see the new servos in your 2007 planes.....I'm sure that you'll give them plenty of brutal flights.

Mark, Garrett, i would like to second your comments on the current digital servos, and the new 9156 to arrive shortly... Man this is simply awesome...perhaps "stainless skills".. might want to get his 9156 order in, and fly for years without "WORRIES"... like we do, and have done for three seasons.Man, how can it get any better... 340oz...Can You Say Sweet??????????????Don
