Hi all,
I just ordered some HS-475's from ServoCity.

THey look like exellent bang for the buck.

Torque 4.8/6.0v : 61 / 76 oz 4.3 / 5.5 kg.
Speed 4.8/6.0v : 0.23 / 0.18 second
Size : 1.5"x0.8"x 1.4" 41 x 20 x 37mm

at $17.95 can't pass the deal up with free shipping and no tax.

Has anyone played with these servos yet?

High Flights!

Greetings!

They are getting the high torque because of the gear ratio. The speed is not so good though. Looks like a tremendous servo oveall. I LOVE my 425's for $14.99 each.

Are you getting the free shipping from Servo City???

Merry Christmas to all!

Default HS-475's

Happy to say these servos are performing flawlessly. 3 months and still perfect!
They are STRONG....just as strong as the hs-545's with a slight advatage of speed going to the 545. But the 475's are 10 bux less!!

When you get 5-8 of these in your plane you just saved 50-80 bux....

They also CENTER very well...much better than my 605's. Not a bunch of "chattering" around center, they're quiet.

So...for any .90-1.40 powered sized plane I'd seriously recommend these to the budget minded flyer that needs the extra "kick" of a higher torque servo.

I haven't noticed the .02 second slower speed in flight....but my wallet is much happier.

Thanks Hitec.....you got a good servo here...

Do these servos have a bb? if so they would be a great servo for a 30 size heli.

They are a ball bearing servo, as for using it in a 30 sized helicopter I wouldn't know.
