For those who are actually going to use the 8611 or similar servos.
The performance of these is seriously influenced by the power available to them.
It is a MUST, to have a battery setup which will not "droop" when the servos are operating under flight loads.
Use a 6 V high amperage potential, set of batteries - multiple power inputs, power distributors, dual switches, etc., which are designed to transport the current needed for these servos.
There is a BIG difference in performance .
Just adding the high performance servo is of little or no added performance value.
Hello Dick,
Would appreciate your suggestions specifically for a Great Planes Wagstaff Extra thus far powered up with A nickle metal 1500 4.8 V equippted W/ ZDZ 50 NG, Airtronics 58Z's, one on each elevator half,one on each aileron and of course the brand new 8611 which is on pull pull rudder. Let me know Dick just call me at RCSC and I'll get paid to listen.. [sm=lol.gif]
