elevator servo question
 
Hi all,

I am using dual elevator servos in my goldberg sukhoi which is on my building board at the moment. I want to find the best servo I can, and I think it has to be a "mid" servo (not as tall as a standard servo) in order to fit into the tail. What futaba or JR servos are there that you guys recommend. I will be using the sukhoi for getting into IMAC (basic first) and then move up from there. Even though I will be a beginner in IMAC, I still want to use the best mid servo for the job.

Thanks,

Chris

Take a look at these. Small, fast, high torque, metal gears.:

If you go with JR, a JR 4721 or even 4131 , is coreless, reasonably fast, and has great torque, so that one servo with a split pushrod is more than enough on this airplane. Built my first one with a Moki 1.5, and my new one with a T. Tiger 120. They are a little pricey, but no more expensive than using two cheaper servos. Oh....and the centering is superb, something you will really need in contest flying.
