Are they digital? I could not find that listed. They should work fine with a JR receiver. I don't know of any other than the very old airtronics that aren't compatible with any receiver.

Re: Giant scale servo $5.95?!?!?!?!?!?
What size is your chinn yak? The reviews were using them in 60 to 90 sized planes.

Re: Giant scale servo $5.95?!?!?!?!?!?

Re: Giant scale servo $5.95?!?!?!?!?!?
Probably some left over garbage from 5 years ago somebody found in a warehouse, you can buy them but I wouldn't waste my time or money on them and certainly would not put them in an airplane especially one you like, thats just my 2 cents though. Why spend 150 on a arf then only 24 bucks on servos, if you want to use old junk I've got a few Futaba gold boxes I'll sell you for 5 bucks each.

I'm not sure where you come up with 230 in/oz, I calculate 95 in/oz

Re: Giant scale servo $5.95?!?!?!?!?!?
*sigh*
Dude, think about it. Would you rather take a risk? Go with something proven and don't skimp out on servos!! Also something to ponder about. Say these servos have a deffect. Where is the customer support? Who know where these things were made. I really wish I had this type of advice when buying parts for my past planes!! |

You get what you pay for. Spend more than you can afford and you'll get more life out of them then you'll expect.

These are premo servos, seen them on a 2.6m plane they are far from crap, select any HD servos
