Savox servo. help!!

PKNEC · 07-20-2012, 08:13 AM

Hi folks I hope someone can help clear this up as I would like to order today.
I am looking at either the Savox 1350 or 1250 servos (cyclics) for my 500 project
Now in the on-line brochure it has the Torque values the same for both units the only difference being metal gears in the 1250 but if you look at the Century website and all associated dealers they quote the 4.8 volt torque of the 1250 considerably lower.
I have emailed Century but not had any reply,so does anyone use these servos and do you know what spec the servos should be.
Cheers all,
Paul

PS I did want the MKS 9660A+ but no one has any in stock, European shops included.

The 4.8 torque is a little lower on the 1250. However.. it's metal gear and I honestly don't see any reason to run 4.8 anymore. 6v seems to be the standard voltage now.

Hi just checked the new catalogue and the torque at 4.8 is the same as the 1350.

Whats the best setup to run at 6v ?
I know my receiver and servos are capable of handling 6volts but what type of battery setup would deliver this.?

On a 500, you would just use the linear BEC in the esc. Pretty much all esc's nowadays are programmable as far as the bec voltage, so it would be coming out of your main packs. You don't need separate receiver packs until you go 600+
