Default Lets talk about servos

I am building my H9 1.20 size (1/4scale) Edge 540 I am using the YS 140 DZ for power (got the recommendation from you guys, thanks) I am trying to keep this plane as light as possible, I will probably use carbon fiber gear if I can find it, but what I need to know now is what type of servos you would recommend , digital, core less, metal gear, composite what there are so many I am a little confused and could use some first hand advice (the instructions say they need to be 90 oz minimum)... Thanks people...

I cant speak for others but in my 1/4 scale Giles I had Futaba 9202's and Hitec 5645's all around. If I had the cash I would go with Hitec 59xx series or JR 8611's.

good luck

I put Hitec 5625's and 5645's on my Midwest 27% Extra with a Brison 3.2 and love them. Like DiabloKid said, if I had the funds I would have gone with the 59xx series also.

I have the H9 Edge and am using Hitec 5645s on everything, and then a Hitec 5945 on rudder.

I don't have any experience with the digital servos, it looks like they are what you guys are recommending, tell me about programming them, and how they are better than standard servos, thanks again guys....

Shortman you have a PM
