The rolex ticks 5 times for every second whereas the fake probably ticks once per second. This is the best analogy I can think of. Anyhow, with the large elevator of the Cap I can see at the tip each step, not a constant motion. Sure if I yank it I can not see the steps but if you go slowly you'll see it.
This is exactly what I saw with the 605's. If you have plane set up for dual elevator servos, it's astonishing to see the difference. Like I said, I installed a 9202 on one side and left the 605 on the other to compare. Night and day. Slow stick movements produced jerky spurts of deflection on the 605 vs a much smoother tracking of the stick movement by the 9202 coreless.
The other big difference is the in flight constant trim fiddling Jason mentioned above. Gone with the 9202's. But with the 605's I'd find myself adding one blip of up trim and taking it out 2 minutes later, with the plane never really feeling 'locked in'.
Funny thing, the Cap is my first 3D type plane and It would make me very nervous to fly due to it's very hot elevator and shady reputation for tip stalling. After changing the servos, I immediately felt more relaxed with the planae. I realized that some of my previous discomfort was caused by the vauge handling of the plane with the 605's.
