Default RE: HOTSPOT

I got the Wilcox instructions looked at them and took a few things. It's ok I guess nothing spectacular I mean it's great that he did that but you know. I followed some of it, the Hotspot in general does not look that complicated to build. I hope no one frowns on my choice of servos but I love Hitec digitals. I have all Futaba gear and was not ready to start spending money on JR radios or servos that I feel are not justified. Some feel that JR is what all jet users use I for all practical purposes feel confident and trust Hitec and Futaba. I don't even use futaba digital servos it seems that whenever I need a specific servo, Futaba does not have it. I was thinking of getting the 10SX along with two top of the line JR digitals with the slim wing servos they make. Ironically, the Hitec servo you see pictured is identical to the JR version, I mean right down to the self adhesive tape supplied! It' just made me wonder and right there and then I decided not to switch. Those Hitecs are stronger than the Volz servos that are recommended in the Wilcox manual. Look at it and you be the judge.
