Servos for HLG's
Christmas is coming and my girlfriend has promised me a Salome (Salsa-Xl) DLG. What servos are suitable for this model? I have some HS81s spare but I think they might be too heavy at 17g
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

RE: Servos for HLG's
I use the HS-50 and HS-55 from Hitec. The 50s are good for rudder and elevator. The 55s are good for Ailerons/Flaps.
Here are their specs.
HS-50:
8.3oz Torque
Weight: 6.1g
HS-55:
15oz Torque
Weight: 8g

I have the futaba 3106..Great and strong servos..not like the hitec..I've bought 2 hitec servos..from the HS-55 series ..and it's broken now..those are not a good servos..buy something from futaba..airtronics..multiplex(knowen as the best radio system)..and Groupner are very good too..hmm..most likely you should buy an sub micro's for an DLG..
my futaba's weight's 8.5 g'...very strong servos..and lite...

RE: Servos for HLG's
I guess the answer really depends on experience. I started using hitec servos after a couple of my futabas failed...
For futaba the S3103 is comparable to the HS-55. The Futaba weighs about a gram and a half more but has 1.6oz more torque.
Given the current options your best bet is probably with the Multiplex servos...they're excellent and affordably priced.
