I wanted the Ace 1313 digital servos, but not to be found if i dont wait a week or so :(
I wonder... would some Hitec hs-5745mg work ? they have a ok speed, and they are strong and all metal gears trough.
I have used that model on a stcc 1/5 car for steering way back, but they worked and i had never any problems with them. Now i use mainly rhinos multiplex 1/5 very strong servos on all my bigscale cars.
Anyways, would 5745 servos work well in my logo 500 3d ?

Nevermind, i guess nobody have any idea. Mod's can delete this whole thread anytime they want.
they wont work, they are 1/4 scale servos. The L500 takes standard sized servos. Buy the best you can afford. to be honest, i run Spektrum 821 on my 500, they are OK but very slow and you can feel it, but more than enough to 3D the thing hard. My 600 will be getting JR 8915s in them, 12kg and 0.09sec shoudl be the best servo possible for it.

Oups, i thought that those servos was standard size. Well, my excuse is... it was a long time ago :lol:
I like Jr servos, have some on my t600, but will get stronger and faster for that heli to soon, and i guess i will later this month buy ace 1313 for my logo 500... i will use those 821 for now anyways, as those 1313 are on the way to the store, but it will take a few weeks.
It is more important on this logo to use a good servo, with that direct connection to the swash, it will demand stronger and more badass servos then on the t600 for real hard 3d, but in return you get a more direct and precise response i guess.
I will check those servos out that you said, thanks for the reply Ian.

Yes, the direct connection to the swash is hard on the servos but if you fit the flybarless head it's hard on the balls on the swash too. I crashed my flybarless 500 last weekend and hit pretty heavily and the shock load transmitted straight to the ball on the inner swash by the direct links from the head sheared one of them straight off, the metal geared HS-5625MG's survived okay :(
