Status: offline 		I have a Sig Somethin Extra that I am using HS-225BB's on the ailerons and rudder. I made this choice based on the specs but from reading the forum it sounds like these are too small to stand up to the loads in this type of plane. I have the throws set low (about 1/2 of spec) while I get used to it, but am concerned that once I open it up the 225s are likely to fail.

So my questions is should I replace the 225s with something beefier and if so whats a good Hitec choice? FYI, my skill level is probably intermediate (2yr flying, 4 planes).

Thanks!

Status: online 		The nylon gears in the mini servos are not as strong as the standards and there have been a couple post of people stripping them when flying hard. You might want to consider replacing the nylon gears with metal to be on the safe side.
