Default RE: HS-81 MG strong enough ?

ORIGINAL: shred_man

Hi,

short question. I wan't to install HS-81 MG servos for the ailerons of my hangar 9 twist. Is this Mini Hitec Servo strong enough for the ailerons ? The servo installation need some modification because the hole in the wing is precut for a standardservo.

Regards
Frank
Strong enough? Probably, but maybe not . I assume you re looking to save weight, not worth it, IMHO.

HS81's are great servos for foam, but they are pricey and not well suited for this application. For less money, you have far better options.

Almost any standard servo would be fine, but I like BB's and MG's. JR sport ST47BB is a cheap BB servo with 47 oz/in at 4.8v. I think they are $13 here.
