Default Retract servo
Hi guys,

I'm building a couple of classic pattern planes at the same time, and have a question on retract servos. I have two Futaba S136G retract servos, but would like to have a spare. I can't find an interchangeable replacement out there. I'm sure the new S3170 is a good servo, but it isn't low profile..... There are a couple of low profile servos out there, but I'd like to find one where the output arm is compatible with Futaba. No one at Tower seems to know if the Tower TS 63 output arm is compatible with Futaba--it seems likely, but I'm not convinced enough to buy one or two.

I'm using MK mechanical retracts (tri-gear). Does anyone have experience that might help me?

Thanks for your help,

Kevin
