is this servo better than hitec hs81? they have similar size

nice servo. should i use the rubber cylidrical shaped object when i mount the servo? Or is it enough to just mount with naked mounting screws that dont go through the rubber. I guess this is for minimizing vibration, but the rubber really makes the mounting seam "loose"
LinusHofmann  23 points - 9/26/2012
 
Just a heads up on a potential reliability issue, I'm a big fan of this servo as a 450 tail servo and they have served me well till today. I had done about 100 flights on this servo when today it began twitching badly in flight before I lost tail control completely and had to auto it down. The signal wire had broken clean off inside where it is soldered onto the pcb. These are very well built servos and despite having a rubber grommet on the wire I suspect vibration transferred down the wires and caused the failure. The wires are fairly stiff aswell which may not have helped. Keep an eye on this and perhaps consider doing a touch of hot glue preventative fixing on the wires (as I have done on this one after re soldering the loose wire) close to the solder points to avoid this type of thing happening to yours. So again, awesome tail servo but check periodically to make sure wires inside are still looking strong.
 barii 23 points
Thanks for sharing. did you mount the servo on the tail maount with screws and rubber or did you just mount it with screws?
 LinusHofmann 23 points
No rubber, just mounted directly into the servo mount on the Trex 450 pro using an adapter plate. I'm not sure using rubber grommets would have helped in my case as I suspect all the movement was coming from the wires themselves, I had also run the wire fairly tightly along the side of the servo rather than underneath which may have put a bit too much tension on the cable on one side and negated the effect of the rubber wire seal to dampen vibrations.

I hear that some of you fit it on a hk/trex 500 tail.. how do you fit it on the tail mount??

carbon gear it is moe resistance than metal gear?
 Vionnet 1050 points
in my opinion, metal gear is more resistance!

May I use this servo into HK 450GT pro with the using of the standart fixing or I should use fixing from 450V2?
 Juan martin 14 points
its the same
 lembios 16 points
servo does not fit into a standard mount. Necessary to make an adapter or use the mount on the m2
 jfl2911 35 points
for cyclic yes, but for rudder you will need to make an adapter.... for tail it is better to have larger one... anyway if you want that one for tail, wake up a modeller from you and give it a try. i am sure you wont miss

Would you recommend this servo for a XRAY M18 Pro?

I just installed this servo in my HK450TT Pro, coupled with a GA-250 mini-mems gyro, one thing I noticed (without fliyng) just testing in my lap is that when move the rudder stick and let it back to center, the servo arm does not return to the original position, if I move the heli tail, it moves quickly to compensate, but not centers back when move the ruder stick, It's that ok? I am realy a nubie in helis
 Rob2160 66 points
Yes, this is completely normal. If the gyro is in heading hold mode it will not centre the servo when you centre the transmitter stick.. If it is Rate mode it will centre the servo. This is normal. They gyro now controls the servo, not the transmitter stick.. by inputting a control input IE a left turn.. the Gyro moves the servo to perform a left turn and will hold it there until the helicopter turns.. Try it.. input a left turn.. then physically turn the helicopter left.. the servo will the

can anyone comment on the durability of this servo? how many flights it last. thanks
 Unto 81 points
This servo has been in my t-rex 250 tail for above 100 flights.
 puddych 29 points
have used 5 of them in variouse models from fast sport models to large gliders...many flights and no brocken gears despite some unsavorie landings

 Rob2160 66 points
I have this servo in a HK450 GT helicopter and it has over 400 flights.. the servo is brilliant.
Csomi3  10 points - 8/4/2011
 
Hy! Which is the better gyro for this servo, GA-250 mini MEMES or a HK-401b? Thanks
 Unto 81 points
Both of them are good gyros. I have tested both of them in differend helis. GA-250 kept the tail more solid.

My servo heats up to 40-45 degrees celsius at 333hz(even at 250hz) with mems gyro and sport flying (no 3d). Is this normal?
 alex_pa 10 points
I think it's ok, as there is a lot of mouvement on tail servo even without 3d flying.

is this perfect fit on a 450 pro tail? can i use this without any modification?
 [KNIGHT] 11 points
No it will not fit perfectly in a 450 tail servo mount. You will have to do some modifications to the mount or get a mount that would fit this or mount it on the boom

What is the working frequency on this servo?
 Colt1873 166 points
The max update is 333MHz or 3ms if this helps you.
 pinguin6218 85 points
I'm going to use this servo with HK GA-250. It has choices of 1520us/333Hz, 760us/560Hz, 1520us/250Hz and 960us/333Hz. Which one should I choose?
 Colt1873 166 points
Max update is 333Hz not 333MHz! It also uses a standard pulse which I think is 1520us
 Colt1873 166 points
here is a source for the servo www.link and it too lists 1520us/333Hz
 Colt1873 166 points
why hk took out the link that would help sell their products I haven't a clue. Find spartan-rc, then go to the support page and scroll down, find the servo data button and click on it. Nope you are not there yet. See if the servo is listed on their servo selection table by finding the click [here] button. Btw the Futaba servos they sell with the GY401 has the identical pulse and frequency as this servo.

Just add it to your cart, you will be surprised. Is it really identical with Futaba FS 555 BB? I saw the Futaba perform really astonishing on the tail of a friends 450, he pitched it up hard without the slightest sign of breakout on the tail. Price of FS 555 is near 80$ here in Germany. Want one so badly :)

23 /5/2011 I have GYRO ALIGN 780 ON T REX W/SERVO HG-D261 I USE *1520/SPULS WIDE DID NOT WORK IS IT 760/S NARROW IT WILL WORK I NEED HELP PLEASE ABDULL
 branflake12 114 points
How wont it work? it is deffinately a 1520 servo, you could try a 250hz update rate vs. the 333, but unless you got a bad servo or didnt set it up right, something else is wrong. I am running 1520/333 on my mini-G just fine.

90 bucks for a lab servo??
 nowinkk 840 points
No, you pay less if you are a platinum member. Put it in your cart and you would see the difference.
 branflake12 114 points
Flash sale* got mine for $30. Should be a nice tail for my G5.
 heyya 190 points
not even worth a buck. bad servo.
 branflake12 114 points
Lots of guys are running these on 500 class all the way down to 250 class. Not sure where heyya is coming from-but there is a chance he got a band one. Also programming your gyro correctly is must to not fry it.
 Mon_t 15 points
Indeed, have one on my 500 and one on my 450pro. Brilliant servo, good resolution and fast.

Why was my comment removed? I just wanted to point out that this is a great servo (identical to the FS 555 BB) and that the price is reasonable to add to cart :) Buy it now!

Using as a tail servo on my HK500GT with an Inertia 860 gyro. Very quick and handles the tail very well. I'm only a sport flier but is perfect for my flying.

I run this servo in my LRP Shark for steering. Excellent response, speed and torque. It centers better than any other servo i have used and is reliable. Can you tell that i like this servo.
