HS-5625 question
I have finally been persuaded to try Hitec servos. I bought 4 HS5625MG digitals but now I have got them home I find there are 3 different types of what should be the same servo. One has twisted cable, the other 3 have ribbon cable. The one with twisted cable has a "Mar 02" sticker on it, one of the ribbon cable servos has a "modified Apr 2001" sticker, and the other 2 have no sticker. The twisted cable "Mar 02" version's box quotes more torque but ever so slightly less speed than the other 3.
What's going on, I expected to get 4 matching servos, not 3 matching and one with different torque and speed? Not a big problem, I can put the odd one out on the rudder.
But those stickers start to remind me of something I heard in the past. There was once a problem with one of the Hitec digis locking at extreme travel. Was it the 5625? The advice was to buy ones with a sticker at or beyond a certain date. Have I been suckered and bought some problem servos?
