Default Re: Unpopular opinion

Hey Columbus guy... I'm in Hebron, and fly in Newark...

Good thoughts on the subject, I think what people ought to take from this thread is that this plane WILL fly great with standard servos... and maybe a Hi Torque on the tail...

But they might get better performance from Digitals...

Bottom line is the plane doesn't REQUIRE them, and when I say that I mean... to fly well, strong, aerobatic, etc... and I don't think anyone would be dissapointed in a more basic setup...

And if the budget is no issue (5645's are $56... 425bb's are $14 and 605bb's are $30) then I'm sure one WOULD enjoy faster response, more authority, etc....

I guess I'll speak up for those of us who would rather go digital on the UCD. I've flown it both ways, and it was much more crisp to control inputs on the digitals. You can get into the 5625-45 for little more than the price of a Futaba or JR high torque servo, and you get 5 times the holding power from the digital. I find that a little more confidence inspiring on say the back side of a KE loop. Everybody has their own opinion though, but this has been my experience with it.
