Hi all

what are the best type of servo gears around? ive foun a new servo for my flips rudder which cseaams quite good, so............

Futaba s3305- (6v)
9kg torque
0.20 sec/60*
brass gears

-30quid

i want to know which gear is the best. in the past ive only used plastic gears. so wat are the pros and cons of each?

if you vote please write a reply to say why its like that

cheers

Well, Plastic/Nylon gears are more precise then the metal geared servos from what I hear and thats what the Futaba servos use, or most of them anyways. The metal gear servos give more torque though if I am not mistaken. Im no expert on this but I would say for 3d flying Metal Gears, for Precision flying Nylon Gears...

I just stripped out one of my hitec 5475 aileron servos today (H9 funtana)
They have that new karbonite composite gear train.

The metal gears are harder to strip...............but vibration getts them sloppy sooner.
Also I'm fairly sure not all plastic gears are the same. The gears in a JR8101 servo are a lot difference in appearence than a standard JR servo. later david
