Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

I am just wondering what servos to go with for my 29% WildHare Sukhoi. I don't want to spend 115 each if I don't have to. How much torque do I need for Aileron, Elevator, Rudder?

Any input is appreciated!

on 5955 they sell them for 89.00 each if u buy 2 or more put them in your cart to see the price.....

Servo City, has a sale on HS-5955's $79.99.

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

You can use Hitec 564s, they are only $50 each. A better servo is the 985, they are $63 each. THere is no need to buy 5955s, they are overkill. Good servos, but not necessary at all.

Not necessary but at only $16 more a hell of a buy and very portable to a bigger plane later..

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

Exactly why I posted them. At $79 each they are a better investment than HS-5645's any day of the week and someday when the originator of this thread moves up to a 33-35% he will already have the servos. I went through this a couple years ago, bought the inexpensive servos and then had to sell them and buy better servos when I moved up to 35%.

You know whats sad?? I bought the little sukhoi and put 5955's in it with the express intention of taking them out and putting them in a bigger plane.. Wound up loving the feel of them in the little sukhoi so much I wasn't about to pull them out. Problem is I just bought 6 5955's for the 35% Extra 2 weeks ago... Wish TBM had a price guarantee. That extra $60 bucks could come in handy. That is twice now that less than a month after making a 6 piece or more servo purchase that they have gone on sale...

Servo city has a good deal on servos. And Tom has good servo packages on his website.

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

So the torque of the HS-5645MG (168 oz/in.) would be sufficient for this plane?

Thanks again for the input.

I am flying 2 different WH 28% birds on 5625's and have NO problems doing harriers, blenders, spins, etc.

Matter of fact I am flying a 33% bird with 5925's in the tail.

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

So is 168 oz in of torque enough for all of my surfaces on the wild hare sukette?

Thanks again

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

I would say yes to all the surfaces except for the Rudder I would go with the 5955 or JR either one would do for the Rudder! !!!

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

168 is "enough" for all the surfaces, but it will perfor bet6ter with more power on the rudder.

There's "enough" and there's "wowzers".

Sorry for the double post--slow connection while out of town :(

Thanks for the input.

RE: Recommended servos 29% Sukhoi
 

Just for now I have a 5645 on my rudder which I don't plan on keeping. I'm thinking along the lines of an 8711 from JR or 5955.

5955 will be MORE than adequate for knife edge loops!
