Futaba S9072SB Servos
Hi Hobbico,
I'm keen on trying out the S-Bus system and am Looking at the S9072 SB servo's for use in a 30cc 25% scale aerobatic plane.
There seems to be conflicting information about this servo on various websites and I have also picked up some errors on the servo specs on the Futaba website i.e voltage ratings of some servo's
Does the S9072SB servo have a metal, nylon or carbonite gear train?
Is the S9072SB and other S-Bus servo's LiFe battery compatible. I run 6.6V LiFe on the analogue servo's but am not sure of the digital S-Bus servo's.
I am considering these and the Hitec 5685MH servo's,

Hi TimBle,
The S9072SB has metal gears, with the first gear being nylon.
They are compatible with LiFe batteries at 6.6V.

RE: Futaba S9072SB Servos
Hi Helpdesk,
These servo's are fantastic on a 24% scale aerobat. fast and very accurate. Very impressed than you very much.
I would like to eliminate the orchestra in warm up mode noise that occurs on power up.
Do I
1) adjust the dead band of the servos to a greater value till the sounds stops,
2) balance the control surfaces?
3) leave it alone its natural for them to sound this way when the plane is not flying.
Your response will be greatly appreciated. I have digital servo's from other brands and all buzz but not quite as loudly
PS: I have the CIU-2 programming tool and software
