635 HB Bad Amplifiers
Dear Mr Ask Mike at Hitec
What would cause the amplifier to go bad on a 635 HB servo?? I had two, nib, 635 fail. The work order included in the return box indicated “bad amplifiers”. Could I have somehow caused the amplifiers to fail??

There are a few thing that could cause the amplifiers to go out. Some are: Servo stalling, reverse battery polarity, crash damage causing servo to stall, motor failure. What are you using the servos on?

RE: 635 HB Bad Amplifiers
Thank for the response Tony,
I'm using these servos for ailerons on a Model Tech 90 size Giles. As I noted, these servos were brand new, and I suspect I may have installed the battery plug backwards causing the amplifiers to fry. Something bad had to happen to cause both new servos to fail at the same time.
