9188hv servos locked up:( - Page 2

I dont believe there is magic here but i wonder how this issue happens to us only in summer and not in winter.

Wouldnt bothor the temp on the servo if i was not loosing the hold of the tail and recently had a servo failure. Am not tryng to argue for nothing but i request if you can check the servo at 108 after flyng hard with strong stops on the tail.

Yap i believe here its more hot than Muncie. Much more uncoftable sometimes when you have a nice wind brazing your face at 50+ degC. Not to mention thw humidity!

Muncie is cold compared to Texas.. their summer is our Spring/winter.

105-110 real feel is average summer day with no wind and 100% humidity down here.

Ok! so what can you try to point that am not doing right? Could it be the internal settings of a spartan gyro? Am sure the frame is correct! maybe other parameters on gyro settup?

Check the deadband is set properly, but 99.999% of the time its the tail mechanics that are the problem, they need to be SUPER smooth.

saeed09 · 05-17-2012, 02:20 PM

Ok..how can i check the dead band Dom?

DominicD · 05-17-2012, 02:21 PM

Simple test, dont move the heli or tx sticks, the tail servo shouldn't buzz the whole time.

CeeveeSiN · 05-17-2012, 02:31 PM

it sounds like he is overdriving or binding or something.. and is this only on 1 heli that is heating up and eating these servos?

DominicD · 05-17-2012, 02:40 PM

If it is happening on several helis it can still be build errors (we tend to make the same mistakes on all our builds), can be a bad pot in the tx or ....

saeed09 · 05-17-2012, 03:48 PM

I totaly agree that we always make the same mistakes. Which tx port did you mean?

DominicD · 05-17-2012, 03:51 PM

Rudder pot..... ask anyone who owns a dx8 .... bwahaha

saeed09 · 05-17-2012, 04:40 PM

This is really bwahaha i cant even know what is a tx port!!! I own a dx7se though. Ok thanks ill ask for that.

I fly in the hot Texas weather as well. Even during the hottest days last summer my old Velocity 50 would come down with the servos at air temperature or just a little warmer. I don’t fly hard, sport mainly. I wander oaw much affect your flying style might have on the servo temps? Just a thought?
Have you considered trying another tail gyro? Maybe it’s overworking your servo.
Hope you get this figured out

saeed09 · 05-17-2012, 05:08 PM

I think i have a 611 in my junk box ill try it with a bl251.

Here is a short vedio the other day i was testing. On it a bl251 and a ds760 spartan.
