Default Futaba S5101 servos

I have several Futaba S5101 servos that I want to use in my airplanes, however, I am unable to identify the specs. I dont know if these are ball bearing, coreless, or their torque, speed, etc. Please help me to sort out what I have so that I may employ them properly. The case size is just very slightly smaller than the popular S3003 servo. I seem to have run into a dead end street on my own, so I thank you very much for your help.

Default Thanks for the info'

I see the S9001 listed as "coreless".
Is the older S5101 also a coreless servo?

Default Futaba S5101 servos

Used them myself back a couple of years... Futaba pls correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember their specs as non coreless (cored) motors...they were very smooth though...I liked their lighter weight/smaller size.

Cheers,
Ken

Good morning KenChoo,

You are correct the S5101 is a "cored" motor. The smoothness that you notice is most likely from the Dual Ball Bearings that they have.

I hope you find this information helpful. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at 217-398-8970 for Support, 217-398-0007 for Service or via fax at 217-398-7721 or by email at [email protected].

Sincerely,
