Default Hitec 635 hb buzzing

Hi all... Got an H9 frenzy all ready to test fly. Elevators and ailerons have hitec hs 635hbs on em ( two each) and they are buzzing. Seem to work ok, but wondering if the buzzing is normal or not. I have tose rings on the elevator leads to stop interferance and am useing a 6 volt, 1000 mah pack.

Any ideas???

Hitech makes great servos.....the 635 is an analog servo, therefore its not digital buzz you're hearing......
that means that your servo or servos are in a bind somewhere.....does the buzzing stop when you disconnect the pushrod from the control horn?
If so you might need to relocate the control horn or perhaps there is a slight bend in the pushrod......somewhere the is a preload that should not be there......
An analog servo that buzzes will drain the battery quicker and have a shorter life...good luck in your search

Hitec servos do not like the 6V battery pack.  Use a regulator to bring the voltage down.

Stan ... you sure on this one?? Irun 6v on several planes that have Hitec servos in them with zero problems whatsoever. Check out Hitec's servo chart and you'll see most of their servos are rated at both 4.8v and 6.0v on both speed and torque.

Most of them are rated for 6 volts, it sounds like a little bind in the set up.

Hitec's rating for 6 volt means 6.0 volt, not the 7 volts of a freshly charged pack.  This is a common complaint with the lipo crowd.  It is easily handled by using a 6 volt regulator to absorb the overvoltage.

The binding can be confirmed or ruled out by hooking up a 4.8 volt pack.  If the buzzing disappears, pick up a regulator.

I have the 635's on a U-Can everywhere but rudder, and throttle. I'm running a 5 cell 2700mah 6V battery with no buzzing. I'm also running some of the new HS-5485 HB's on same 6V battery set up with no buzzing.

You're good with 6V battery and Hitech servos ......I have a couple of airplanes set up that way with no problems....
