HI I WAS JUST WONDER IF THESE SERVOS WERE GOOD?IM THINKING ABOUT ABOUT PUTTING THEM IN MY 42INCH ELECTRIC TRAINER PLANE?
AND WOULD THEY BE POWERFUL ENOUGH FOR THIS PLANE THEY HAVE
17 OZ POWER?

THANKS !!!!!!!

pburt1975

They will be plenty strong enough for that plane and if they are anything like the HXT900 from hobbyking, they are a good servo.

swedenBub:they'll be fine, And Jeff at Heads Up Rc has them on sale! I use them on near everything I fly,bub, steve

swedendude

Thanks!!!! Is hextronic a better brand??

swedendude

My plane is balsa not foam? Im just making sure im new at this?and will problay end up weighing between 20 and 30 oz i think?
Thanks

Bub Steve

I think there the same servo as awhile back I was take'in the label off to glue it on a plane and it had a tower-pro label under it!! HaHaaa! bub, steve

pburt1975

dunno about better, I just tend to do more bulk shopping from HK and these fit the bill just fine.

FYI, the only 1 I had a problem with was my fault! I hooked all the control linkage up, before centering the servo. When i plugged in the battery, the control arm was 90deg off and it went to center against the control surface and ground the gears into dust before I could figure out what was happening.

swedendude

How do you center a servo???

Bub Steve

No prob's at all, I got a dozen balsa planes fly'in 9 gramers all weigh at lease that or more bub, steve

Bub Steve

Hook it up an turn it on-, make sure your tran trims are centered, then turn off, they should be centered, bub, steve

swedendude

alright will do so should i get the tower pro brand,hextronic , or all the others that are the same or are there any recommendations???
thanks!!!!

Bub Steve

SERVO - 9g TP SG90 Sub Micro Servo

TP SG90 9 gram Sub Micro Servo
The TP SG90 is similar in size and weight to the Hitec HS-55, and is a good choice for most Parkflyers. I have this servo installed in most of my models, including my GWS Slow Stick, E-Flite Mini Edge, GWS Corsair, Simple Stik, GWS Beaver, and World Models 48" Piper Cub.

The TP SG90servo weighs 0.32 ounces (9.0 grams). Total weight with wire and connector is 0.37 ounces (10.6 grams).
The TP SG90 has the universal "S" type connector that fits most receivers, including Futaba, JR, GWS, Cirrus, Blue Bird, Blue Arrow, Corona, Berg, Spektrum and Hitec.
The wire colors are Brown-Red-Orange: Red = battery positive Brown = battery negative Orange = signal

Bub Steve

Thanks Kev! bub, steve

swedendude

Alright I'll buy 4 sg-90 servos and see what happens oh and I'll get a link to my plane soon!will the servos fit in a airtronics reciever??

gfdengine204

Yer very welcome, bub. That's why they pay me the big bucks.....

swedendude

So bottom line the sg-90 servos will be plenty power for a 20-40 once 20-30 mph 42inch trainer electric? Thanks again

Bub Steve

Sure they'll work fine, your bub, steve

Let me add something to what Steve said. After the servo centers, remove the servo arm, if necessary, and place the servo arm at a 90 degree angle to the servo. It is better if this is done without any linkages to the control surfaces attached or you will end up like Paul (pbert1975) with servo gear powder.

Now they are centered and ready for the linkages.

If the arm is not exactly 90 degrees to the servo, you can use the transmitter trim to center them.
