http://<b><font color=''#00265e'' si...ivn</font></b> , what kit is that? Adding larger wheel's to a kit is no surprise; I've had to do that to all the kits I have bought. Companies will do anything to save a worthless penny.

I have experienced many buzzing servo's and never had any prob's. As you might know, there is a big difference between a buzzing servo and a glitching servo.

Last year I did a maiden flight on a friend of mines giant scale cessna, 5k dollar plane. As we did the pre-flight, I told him it had a elevator servo glitch and he said for me to go for it lol. The flight went well overall with many glitches. The plane would dive, or climb BIGTIME and then fly perfecty for a minute or 2 and would glitch again. On final approach from about 30 ft it glitched downward and smashed into the pavement. It was a total loss, even the engine with custom gold platting was destroyed, everything.

If you're servo just sit's there and hum's, I think you will be alright, if it glitches that's a different story. Keep us/ me posted on the findings.


M.M.

The kit is a Great Planes Electric Cub.

The servo is not glitching,just hums like it
is not centering. The weather is lousy today
but looks good for tomorrow.
