Servo Selections
Not wanting to start a debate on who makes the best servo here but I have gotten into a small (so far) debate on the proper size servo for a 1/4 scale aerobat and it got me to wondering. What criteria do you use when determining which servo to use for a given plane? I mean I will use standard ball bearing servos for a .40 size trainer, I'll use sport digitals i.e. JR 811's or Hitec 5475's for a .60 size cub or Funtana or similar, but when it comes to the bigger planes I try to make the servos output power match the weight of the plane. I would never use say a JR 8611 on a Sig Extra 300XS but I would use a JR 8231 or a Hitec 5645.
What do you guys use and how do you come to your decision?
