Hello,

I just picked up a new TREX 450SE V2. I am going to get a GY-401 gyro and S9560 tail servo. What do you guys recommend for the cyclic servo's?

I have seen people with the HS-65mg and others with the HS-56 servo's....

I am a newbie that can just do tail-in hovering at this point, but I'd like to get the better servo so I won't have to upgrade in the future.

THanks!

The HiTech HS-65MG's seem to be the "standard" for the cyclic servos on a TREX 450.

HS56 servos are the old recommendation. Now the most frequently chosen servo is HS65MG.

I'm getting 65MGs with mine if it matters.

I've used both, they both work. The 65mg's wont strip gears in a crash.

I have on mine the JR 285's with the 3400g for the tail.

That is what my LHS sold me at the time.

I was wondering how they compare to the hitec 65's ?

I have the hs-65hb's in mine, just had my first crash which was over conctrete, full head speed and plowed into the ground, hundreds of bucks worth of damage plus maybe a new gy401 [&:]

anyway, my servos are perfectly fine.

Hitec HS65MGs or HBs, both are very good for the money. Seem to be very popular too.

i did the 65hb but no crashes to report on yet for another 2 weeks or so lol when im finished with the build.

if you go 65hb you can always upgrae to the MG if need be

I did have hs-56's on my cyclic before and they suck i.e. strip gears right away on impact.. so i switch to hs65's hb's..
