Default Hanger 9 Cap 232 -- SETUPs

You know I've been in this hobby for years, and just in the last 3 years I've been flying larger airplanes. Well before these larger ones came into my fleet I flew, and still fly 40 and 60 size plane's utilizing Futaba S148,3003,and 3004's JR 507,517, and 537 servo's. All these have always worked fine, and planes fly straight and level "handsoff", never had a problem. Now all of the sudden the new servo's arent good enough.

I'm really starting to believe that all this gets started by an industry that wants everyone to switch over to digital servo's, and pay $60-100 per servo, thats ridiculous. When you put out a new digital servo in the market, and say their faster, with more torque, and better centering than non digital servo's, then you might think the standard servo's dont do all that well.


For you non 605BB Believer:
Can anyone tell me what centers better, Hitech 605BB or a Futaba 3004?
and the reason I ask this is because if the 605BB'S center as well as the Futaba 3004'S, then it works, and again I have flew my 1/4 Giles with them and they worked fine. Daz...
