I asked on the MAIN topic with not much response.


Quote I have a group of servos I want to use in the raptor 50 I just bought. Can't get any new ones right now.

What I have is:
(3)JR DS821 (don't want to use these)
(2)JR DS811 (54 oz/in @ 4.8v)
(1)Futaba S3121 (43 oz/in @4.8v)
(1) new Hitec HS-5625 metal gear (109 oz/in @ 4.8v)

I am set on the tail. I just need use a combo of these for the rest.
Should I use the Hitec on the collective and the DS811's on the cyclic.....Futaba on throttle

TIA
My new question is?????
Where should the strongest servo go?
Which area gets the most stress.
FFF, loops, rolls and inverted hover.....No hard stick banging
Pitch, Ele or Ail????

I honestly flew my first low budget Raptor60 with Futaba 3003 All round minus 9254 on the tail. Was able to run +-10degress and do your basic aerobatic heli flying although it took 15seconds to get full stick deflection on the head :-d. I would run your Stronger servo on you collective since it will be doing the most physical job, out of cyclic and collective.

I agree with hedge crusher, use the highest torque on the pitch, the next on the elevator unless you have push pull then it wouldn't matter as much. For the throttle you do not need much.
