I see a lot of ads for Hi-tech digital servos and they always show this little electronic box w/ them--What the hell is it???

Some Hitec digital can be programmed

Most current hitec digitals can be programmed using their servo programmer. You can change things like direction, speed, center and end points. The programming feature would be helpful for setting up a CCPM heli because you can match the servos. I've used the hitecs on planes but not on helis. Had one to fail and cause my expensive plane to crash so I'm using 9252's on my helis.

I had a set of these in my pmax. I had one fail as well. They seem to work good. I had the pleasure of using the programmer without buying it.
The programmer cost $130. It also allows you to set the speed of the servo as well. I am now changing them to 9252's.

Shannon, I think only Multiplex and Hi-tec have this ability.
