Servos for H-9 Sukhoi
 

I was wondering what servos you guys are running on this airplane? I have ordered 4 Hitech 5645 digitals and I plan to go with a Hitech 605 on the throttle. As for the other 4 servos I have no clue what to get. I want it to be a good servo but the $$ has to be reasonable and I need high torque as well as high speed.

Hi Layne; I am using the 5645s on all control surfaces and futaba s3004's for the throttle and choke. If I ever get this plane finished, I am now running into fit problems on the cowl.

I am using
4 5945 (elev rudder)
4 5925 ( ail)
2 s3003 ( Throttle, choke)

Hey I also have the h-9 sukhoi and I am trying to find the acc. package. Have you found one? If not were is a good place to order all of the linkages and push rods. I am also using Hitech servos not sure of the numbers but they are dig. and have around 130oz torque

8411's on the tail, 4735's on the ailerons. 811 on throttle and 507 on choke.

I have the H9 cap with 5645's all the way around except for the throttle. They have plenty of torque, and center very well. A freind of mine(with the sukhoi) has 645's on everything, and they work pretty well as well, but I haven't flown it but one time!

8411's on ailerons and elev, 811 for throttle, and Futaba 5050 on riudder. Spare no expense.

can any one tell me why the wing on the sukoi,& others of this configureation tip stalls, & can drop into a spin????

Layne

also consider the Futaba S3305. It has great torque at 4.8 or 6 volts and its CHEAP!! Got one at Tower for $35. Only drawback I could see with it is the speed is not the fastest in the world but mine is on the rudder so I dont need it to be speedy. :)

How did you get that servo for $35?? The link you gave me showed $101 :(

P.S.
crash1,
Any wing can drop and go into a spin. The Cap, Extra, you name it if you get it slow enough it will do it (unless its a small UCD type of plane). I was test flying a nice AT-6 one day and when it set up on final it dropped a wing at half throttle and went into a spin, I couldnt get it out so it ended up floating in the pond for a while. I never new a warbird could float so good. :)

Now its showing $35, man thats weird.

oops, $101 was the price for 3 of them :)

I might look into these for my rudder system. I am going to be running a 6V battery so the torque would be pretty good. I can get the hitechs at dealers price :) so the digis are only $12 more than the futabas. But it does look like a good servo for the price.

thanks southern- touch9

i just lost a 1/4 scale cap 21, i went into a hang it on the prop but not quite enough power to hang it with, it fell over into a spin oopppsss to close to the ground to recover, so now i have a bunch of stuff to put in another something or other, ,, gravity will get ya ,,,
