John, In the past 15 years I've flow all the "in" servos. It used to be Air. 141's or JR 341's for ailerons Futaba 3002's for flaps, and various servo's for rudder and stabs. In the latter years when the new generation of servos came to the fore and Mann Tau started to import the blue Volt's, our eyes were opened to the new upgraded servo. Then Carlton brought in the red servos. JR started to improve the market with the great Didgal 368 with fantastic centering. Each time people flocked to the improvement. Now Airtronics has again raised the bar. and I say "Lead on" and they have never given me one servo, ( all the rest of the servo companies haven't either) I don't fly well enough to warrant a promo.
Now my thoughts on service...... VOLTZ>>> I've owned about a dozen Voltz"s over the years, and I sent back seven or eight for repair ( I have another one for you Gordy, I'll bring it to Visalia) so I felt I was field testing them for Michael. JR>>> flown many, many JR's, I sent some 341's back to Horizon after I called and they said they would repair as needed and a couple of weeks latter they arrived back on my doorstep with a note from Horizon stating they were not repairable. With no explanation,,,,, Multiplex>>>> Never used Airtronics>>> Flown hundreds, Best service by far over the last fifteen years. I still own four Vision radio's, (They work for me and I'm too old to change radio's in mid flight) the service is prompt and personal. You can talk to service and "Jack" the Guru "Tetchy" for probably the last twenty years or more for any software program-related problem. But if "they", can't fix servo or radio, their policy is to send you a new replacement for half the original price if the item is over the warranty period. What a deal! ,,,,,,,,,,,,and that's my 2 cents worth. And if I stop by the Airtronics booth at Visalia and they give me a hat, I'll proudly wear it! Is that the way to suck, D ? and if D gets a servo once in a while, he's no threat to you, cause he can't see any more and he's still gonna go to hell anyway,,,,,, right BoZo "You only get the servo you deserve" Ron Widel RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
