I use them for the rudder on my 27% planes. I have them installed in a standard format though, no SBUS.

they are the more expensive SBUS replacement for the 3051HV servos which I've used for a few years now. I think the only thing I don't like is that Futaba discontinued the 3051HV and charges $20 more for the 3071HV only difference is the SBUS capability which I didn't need. Other than that both servos seem to be very good. I've had them in planes now for over 3 years without issue.

Thanks for your feedback.

Do they hold or center nicely ?, they have metal gears and 10.5Kg at HV 7.4v is perfect for my warbird.

I feel that they do. For a warbird I think they would be great. Someone flying 3D might have a different opinion but for my purposes ( sport flying/aerobatics and scale warbirds ) I think they work really really well.
