Rudder servo help

Andy Slaviero · Mar 10, 2003

??? I'm building a 44in Aeromarine Avenger cat with an A-90HP.I'm getting ready install my radio gear, but need some advice on the rudder servo. I'm installing a futaba 3003 for throttle, and an Hitec 81micro for my mixture control. My radio box is an Aeromarine #4, and I don't have the room for a 1/4 scale servo as suggested by them.

Any help will be great.

Thanks.

Who makes a good digital servo at a buget price?(approx. 100 bucks or so)

Andy,

I use JR DS 8411's in both my 90 rigger and 90 mono. They are digital servos, metal gears, very good. They are about $115 US.

i've always had great luck with the hitec servos.... they have great service as well... sent me some replacement parts for free once!

Thanks for the help guys!

I got an e-mail to check out servocity.com on the Hitec 5945mg. It has 180oz of torque @ 6.0 volts, and its only 89.95 dollars. I bought it and its on the way. ;D

Thanks again.

Hi andy, im running a aeromarine 42' sprintcat with a A90 hp using a hitec 605bb for rudder servo and seems to be working fine, the futaba 3003 for the throttle might be a bit light as the carbs seem to get quite stiff at times,
