Default Servo Torque for raptor 60

I was thinking of getting a Raptor 60 v2 with OS .70, and was wondering how much torque should my servos have and any advice on speed will be helpful. Will a gy401 with a 9254 be ok for the tail i think it will be fine. I currently have a raptor 30 running it with out a govornor should i get one for the 60. Any info will be very helpful.

Thanks

Ken

I would say any decent 70oz servo will work good. I personally would not use anything cheaper than a coreless Futaba 9202. The 401 gyro will work fine for now but later you may want to upgrade to the 601. You really don't need a Gov on the 60 but it won't hurt. I am using one from my Raptor 50 and I like it.

Thanks for that advice. Is there any reason the 601 would be better than the 401. Just tring to see what the total investment will be if i don't upgrade later and maybe get it know.

Thanks again

More or less the 601 just holds the tail better and can handle the torque of the larger engines. I used a 401 on my 60 for a couple seasons and never had any problems but I did notice a difference when i switched to the 601. If you aren't really doing crazy 3D then the 401 will be fine.

OK I thought it was a little stronger?

Thanks
