Ghoffman, epic fail has some catastrophic tone over it. Explain in what maner the servo was not up to its task.

Never mind, I found this thread about the 7955
Hitec HS-7955TG Voltage
That is all I need to go ahead with what I got. Later I can change if not all up there for the task.
The investment into first gasser project is already close to 4k. I better stop buying and get ready for the build instead. What I got for this plane is;
DA70 with JTEC muffler
Dual Fromenco A123 2300mAh batteries
Fromenco Dc-Up Cricket Capasitor
HS servos
Secraft horns, tank ect ect ect
Pete model CF spinner
Mejzlik prop
Tech-Aero BEC for ignition
Some Vinyl graphics

Still missing suitable power switch. Looking around for something dual battery with fail safe with neat function. Any Ideas?
Do I need an ignition switch when I about to use a BEC? If so, which one got your vote?

Hopefully I will be pleased with how it turns out. Week after next I'll start building.
Thats all for now.

Fromeco Wolverine is great. No need for ignition switch with your Tech-Aero.

Thank you. I'll look into this switch. Amazing how much of rc gear changes going from nitro to gas.

Also with a123 batts (2 at that) you really don't need a DC-up. Those are only needed in high power drain situations and with 2 a123's you will be melting wires and connectors long before you have a situation where the batts can't cope with power draw.

Also for servos I would look into a 7950 if you wanna stay hitec or a JR 8911hv or Savox 1231. At 6.6v a 7955 on the wing will probably not cut it. Low speed rolls will be alright and low throws will be ok but for high deflection at speed and for crisp snaps and rolls you will want more torque.

Hucking Chuck,
The HS 7955 thread claimed that it is a HV servo after all,good for some 403 oz/in while on7,4v. I'm starting to lean towards a dual LiPo solution instead of the Fromenco A123, or maybe disgard both LiFe and 7955 while at it. I'm not getting this plane for slow rolling rate.
Thanks for your input. I rather make changes now than later and having to buy more gear.

Ok, it's done. I swap the aileron servos for HS-8385Tg, 6,0/7,4 403/486 oz/in.
Will run dual 2200mAh LiPo thru an Emcotec DPSI dual battery regulator with build in magnetic switch. Hello Fromenco DC-Up Cricket come to papa.
This sum everything up and I will try to come back in a couple of weeks/month to show what I got. Wish me luck on my first gaser build. Thanks guys.
