Default RE: Which type servos should I use in a bipe?


ORIGINAL: jetmech05

I have the 60 size Goldberg Ultimate....It takes 5 servos: 2 ailerons (with a pushrod from the bottom ailerons to the top ailerons), 1 rudder, 1 elevator (with 1 pushrod that splits and goes to both elevators), 1 throttle. I'm pretty sure I'm using standard servos...You can use different receivers but they must be compatable with Futaba....just ask whoever you get your gear from....I think I'm using Hitech...sorry I can't remember but my Ultimate will be 2 years old this Christmas.....
What engine do you have or are planning to use?...I put a .75AX on mine turning a 15X6...Just an outstanding prop sound with this combo

This is the bipe I have

I bought a used OS Max FS-120 Surpass four stroke for $120 for it. I'll be testing it on the bench tomorrow to make sure it runs okay.

How much can I save if I can use the Hitech receiver and will it work with 2.4 GHz?

Thanks.
