Has anyone tried JR S185 servos...?

[huskynox]

These things are lite and blazing fast @ 6V. .06 transit speed, but only 13 oz/in torque. I guess the question is accuracy..?

[rotorhead58d]

are they digital? i found S285's but not S185's

[huskynox]

No, they're not digital, but either are the HS45's. That's why I questioned accuracy.......

See attached specs....

Won't fit :(

Huh? It's only .010 bigger in width then the Futaba S3154..? I've heard of guys installing them all the way around....!

If it's the .010 (.43" vs. .44") width dimension, I'm sure the frame can be modified?

I'm happy to be proved wrong, but I tried with one in mine - 1mm wider than a HS-45 which are a very tight fit

I have been using them for months now on my custom ep100 frame.They are the absolute bee's knee's.center great and faaaaaaaaaaaaast.no notchiness at all in the resolution.
Note they do not like a binding setup,if you setup well they are great.

just bought 2 more today.

You sir appear to be crizaizzy. Nice custom work, maybe i'll make my frame custom a-la dremel to accommodate these guys

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think your gonna need that dremel :o. I don't think that the S185s are anywhere near long enough to line up with the mounting holes correctly.

[aristo]

a very small plate of g10 screwed onto the frame with a second piece as a spacer would set you right up.
