Default Jitters with Y connector 8411's

Hi Guy's I am getting the jitters on the side with the reverser when it comes back to center. I am a point of just getting the servo reversed. But I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this on digital servo's.

Thanks in advance, Dave R

Dave, have you tried the servos with a standard y harness yet. If you have did they jitter at all when they returned to center. If not my guess is that little in-line servo reverser.

I personaly don't use them at all and have seen to many problems other guy's have had with using them. Do yourselrf a favor and get a reversed servo.

Default Reverser

Hi John:
You are right. I need to just go with the reversed servo. I was just wondering what would cause it to do that. It does not happen with standered servo's, but why the digital? Thanks John,

David,

Those servos aren't hard to reverse yourself. I was scared to do it because I paid so much for it, but it worked fine. The biggest problem is that gooey stuff in there. I cut through it with a clean blade, and did the standard reversing procedure. Try it?

It's most likely because the digitals are much more responsive to minute fluctuations in the signal line. Been there, done that.

Default 8411 chatter

When I first set up my AD F-16 elevons the 8411`s did not chatter until I set the elevon mix on the tx. When you touch them or put a load on the stab it stops. Kind of creepy but have many flights on them that way with no troubles. I even sent them back to Horizon for a check up and they did the same when they came back.

Have you tried just putting one servo into another channel and "reversing" with a mix?
