Default Futaba Servo with JR Tx & Rx

Can you use a futaba micro servo with a JR Tx & Rx?

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong about this.

I believe you can mix different servos. If it has a tab on the connector just cut it off to fit in the receiver.

Default servos

Yes. The only problem I have ever had was mixing servos with gyros. I fly Futaba Gyros and tail rotor servos. I mix the rest as needed. Good luck.

Like the others said, you will be fine using Futaba servos and gyros with JR radios...

I fly nothing but Futaba servos and gyros with my 10X & 649PCM receivers...

Just be advised that though the Futaba servos work with JR (and visea versa) be sure to reverse your travel direction...the servos work backwards from each other. Chris

Always look up the polarity of wiring on the servos you are going to use, I release the tab and can pull out the wire tab and reinstall it back into the connector housing, never cut & solder. If you are to use a different RX with a dif. radio system some radios even have the option for polarity shift (Positine-Negative Shift) Like on my new Hitec Eclipse radio w/Spectra module. I now have 4 radios (Futaba 9Z WC2-Hitec Eclipse-JR 347 (2)-Airtronics RD 6000 Super) for helis were my wife and brother can fly with me anytime. So at times on the Hitec I use my Airtronics RX, I have eight flight packs left over for helis.
