Need some serious servo help
Hello all,
I'm moving into 3D and I have a 33% hanger 9 extra 330l that I need servos for. I've asked almost everyone I know for their input. After almost a month of asking I'm no closer trying to figure out what servos to get than when I started. I'm really hoping that you guys/gals can help me figure out what I need. I need 6 servos: 2 rudder, 2 elevator and 2 ailerons to work with my dx7 controller. I'll list below the things I'm taking into account.
1. I want servos strong enough to do 3D
2. I want servos that are going to hold up
3. I don't want to break the bank on servos
4. Do all the servos need to be the same?
I like the jr ds8711 but at $139 each it's a little more than i have budgeted. Also isn't this overkill Do I really need 403oz torque servos on every control surface for a 33% plane? I've also thought about the Hitec 5955 servos. At roughly $90 each thats more inline with my budget. However I've read and been told that I might have centering problems with the Hitec's.
With all the different servo choices my head just feels like it's spinning. I want to buy the best I can afford but at the same time I don't want to waste money. It might be easier to just ask if this was your plane what servos would you use and why?
