I didn't mean to start a manufacturer's war. I just found a neat new servo, and wanted to share that with the group. It is true, I do not exactly pay retail for radio... but it doesn't really matter, I do not promote a product I don't believe in - period.
Now that being said, I'm not sure where John is getting his data. In my post, I referred to a brand X... yes, it was one of those junior (JR) servos. ;-) Radio or servo manufacturers obviously test their products, and put some sort of spin on it to help sell it. Some manufacturers may derate that data to be safe, others may bump it up to artificially show superiority over their competitors. Again, I do not know where Mr. Diniz got his data. All I know is after all this mess, I rec'd another email from the gentleman who did the initial test I forwarded. This is what it said: "i see all those post on RCSE and the specs on these servos. Thats why i decided to test these servos and not read labels. All i know is the 368 wouldn't pick up the weight and the Z servo did, thats all i need to see." That kind of says it all, guys. I didn't want to get into personal thoughts about the servos, since I'm obviously tainted by the allmighty dollar. I am getting so freaking rich from flying toy airplanes - you should see my yacht... ;-) But... here ya go - My experience with the new Airtronics Digital is it's the best servo I've ever run. I've never run the JR 368 (I would have had to pay for the f...er) ;-) I ran the Airtronics servo on my Sharon, flaps and ailerons. No issues with blowback on launch or landing. I put them in my Space Pro - again... super stiff and strong. Used the servo for the full flying elevator in my F3B model. That made me nervous, but again - works great. The last number for torque I was given by Airtronics was 53 ounces. That was a verbal, and I don't know how true it is. So I guess... a more appropriate statement would be: As strong, faster, smaller, lighter, cheaper.... ;-) D __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
