Hi all

Im only 14 so im kinda on a buget when it comes to things like servos :disappoin . im getting a flip soon :rainfro: and i need some goodish servos but for a cheap price.

What the good, cheap ones around which will cope with a 3d master at the sicks (i wish :bananahea ).

Thanks

Ian

I would;
get a 6V pack.
Try standards, see if she needs any more.
Maybe look for a cheap second hand 9202, or something similar for rudder.
If you need anything more, then I think that JR has a 5kg standard servo, and I think futaba have 3010s, which are said to be more powerfull too.

The JR 591 are good cheep servos they have 5kg of torque for £13 each, compared with futaba 3001 at £10 for only 3kg torque.
I use the JR's for all my aircraft with no probs.
hope this helps

Those 591's sound like the ticket....is that at 4.8V?

yep thats at 4.8v there also ballraced as well. I dont think there is an alternative for the money. there nearest Futaba is aprox £20. Cant be bad.

Hi edible_engine

Have you seen the new futaba 3010 (not 3001)?Thay very new in the UK, I've got my local model shop to order me some. They're 20 quid and have 6.5 kg torque and 0.16sec/60 deg speed at 6v. I'm putting four in my Capiche 50. Bit more expensive than the 591 but more torque and futaba quality.

Andy

Are futaba better quality??

Are the 3010s metalgeared. Ive alread put about 2mm of slop each way in my 148s on my cougar because of all the tail touching

Ian

Its unlikely the 3010 is metal geared for that money.

591s will do fine or thr 3010 if you are on a budget.
