Hi all,
What process do you go through with Running in new servos, and Recievers before putting them in a new jet model ???
I have a servo test and cycler from Graupner, have run servos on the bench with this for half hour in the past--- but not sure whats best--- i have a bunch of Futaba servos to run in my new Rookie 11, and a bunch of JR for my boys Baby Boomerang---
All ideas greatfully recieved.
cheers Jay.
Put the receiver in the freezer overnight. Quickly while it's still cold fire it up and check it out. That test usually will tell you if there is an installed component that is out of tolerance. Then a vibration test, and finally the good ol swamp & range tests... test the servos the same way same time. Then I do a stall test with the servos to see if the servo amps will hold up to a few stalled moments.
After the new stuff passes these tests then fly it in a beater... I like to keep my beaters for next time!
