Default RE: What servos to buy?


ORIGINAL: bigdanusa

Futaba 3004 servos work fine for 40-60 size airplanes.

However, I've been flying these planes since 1973 and found out my 4 channel radios will make my planes fly just as well as any 6 or 7 channel radio will.

The only programming I have to do on my 4 channel radios is turning it off or on and setting the trim levers.

As a beginner, if you don't have that Futaba 7C programmed right, you can kiss your plane goodbye!

Whether you're an electrician or not!

Thats why radios are shipped with instruction manuals to aid the user in correctly setting up a model.

Beside 4 channel radios offer noting other than basic control, not even a timer which the 7C has.

the 4 Channel Futaba is also not a FASST transmitter and therefore once he is done with his trainer he will have no use for the Tx. Ok so this was your choice and there are factors that obviously led to you making that choice. Wazzbat is chosing the FASST7C. Help with servo options for that choice please.
