Your calculation is right. According to my experience the given numbers are usually not even close to measured data. They are more useful as a comparison. In this case a deviation of even 30pcnt does not matter so much. Anyway, these servos are small and have little torque. Good for very small models. Useless for anything larger. If HXT500 fits, use this instead.
Hi mdemora .
Although it seems to be a very good micro servo ,
i use them only for my small foamies around 200gr .
If i were you i would prefer to use the HXT500 than this one ,
because of its smoothness , more accurate ,
with little bit more torque and you can also find a gear set for repair .

These micro servos are emant for slowfly foamies mostly, I would rather go for HXT900 9g servos for the spad. They tend to have large control surfaces and I dont think the 4.3 gram micro servo (and thus the SPAD itself) would last long.
The Spad uses 5 and 9 gram servos, this 4.3g servo works well on my 3D foamies. But, I think if you use them on the Spad, only the rudder and elevator are small enough and only if they are fitted with proper hinges not the foam hinges on some of the EPO models. The HXT500 and HXT900 would be my choice.
Como es este este servo, en relacion al HXT500? No parece ser criterio de exclusion las tres decimas de gramo extra de peso. El conector es el mismo, las prestaciones son similares?
El HXT500 es mucho mejor. Este no es exactamente analogico, va dando pasos al avanzar. El resto es muy parecido (mismo tamaño, mismo conector). Yo tengo los dos modelos en un foam y prefiero el HXT, de lejos.
Hi maukabud, these servos come with standard JR/Futaba style plugs. I believe they are the smallest servos to come with them before they start using JST's. Hope that helps.
I would use the 4.3g HobbyKing as although the Turnigy 1440A servos are high quality, they are easily stripped due to their small gear size. I have yet to strip a 4.3g HK servo. Also check out the HK15168 servos for highspeed and up to 40" wingspan planes - cheap, reliable, light & powerful.
habe mehrere in meinen Indoormodellen verbaut, bisher ist noch keins kaputt gegangen trotz vieler Kolisionen, Stellgenauigkeit natürlich nicht so gut wie bei shr teuren Servos.
What is this nonsense about steps people keep on harping about in the reviews? This is an analog servo, isn't it? So any stepping would be an artefact of either the analog algorithm, or the method of testing. Giving a slow swoop with the sticks is not a very representative way of testing, you don't do that while flying either.
Not neccesarily. Analog does not mean 100% resolution (nor does digital) An analog servo regulates its output angle by means of a feedback potensiometer, and if a ***r meter is used, it will step (or stutter).
somewhere around 0.8 -1.0 mm. I suppose you are unable to widen such a hole so are looking for horns that exactly fit your control rods? Or are you just bored and did I fall for a lame troll?
One of the smallest and lightest servos. These are really small and good value for money. Torque is a little less but does the job for my Yak 55, foamy 25 inch wingspan.

Feigo servo tester shows that there is only 22 steps from left to right. This is very rough and I wouldn't want to use this in anything other than cheap foamies. Not smooth enough for 3D flying but great value for inexpensive flyers.

I just received a new batch of these little servos and the servo amplifier has been changed to add drive transistors for the motor. This has resulted in considerable improvement in servo resoultion. With this change the servo follows very closly the movement of transmitter stick. I also has more torque as more of the battery voltage is applied to the motor.

Anyone who complains about these servos obviously hasn't spent double or triple to get the same results. I found that they center well and make no noise at center like some others do. I don't know what people are expecting of this servo but in the little indoor flyers I use them on they work great.

I ordered 3 of them. The weight ist OK. In use I found out that they have about 25 steps in each direction (plus/-, total 50). For trimming it is a little few.
