  • @interman7715
    @interman7715 3 роки тому

    I use 1256 and 1270 savox servos in a 120cc IMAC plane and to be quite honest they throw it around like a rag doll and the centering is fast and accurate all on 6.6 volt but the false torque claims of some of their servos must be addressed.

  • @KTMcaptain
    @KTMcaptain 4 роки тому

    Reefs triple 7... insane torque, underrated by Exocaged review... and dead silent. Love mine. Except that it broke so many front end parts on my trx6 including ripping the panhard axle mount off when it slid off a rock and snapping my metal chassis panhard mount when it rolled end over end. Lol. But I’ve tried strong servos, like the savox 2230 (6v to protect micro servos), and the heavy truck stalled them too much.
    .
    I use weak servos on my 7.25 pound 4ws Capra because even if they stall it’s so nimble it doesn’t really affect my climb. Lol.

    • @KTMcaptain
      @KTMcaptain 4 роки тому

      andy R. If you say so lol, all I know is that it works amazingly well. Pretty much every servo available uses parts manufactured from another company...

    You should also be testing these servos from the inner hole also on the horn.

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  4 роки тому +3

      No, for oz/in ratings and testing, the hole has to be exactly 1 inch from center. Otherwise the results are pretty random. It'll measure stronger on inner holes and weaker on outer holes.

  • @EmilWilkensRC
    @EmilWilkensRC 4 роки тому

    Consider testing at 8,4V ? The HV servoes are made to run off 2S lipo which is 4,2V Per cell at full charge. Might make a difference :) great test , keep up your good work. Thanks

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  4 роки тому

      I couldn't see in the documentation that 8.4 was approved. Even at 7.4 volts, it gets very hot. So I don't think that could take 8.4v repeatedly.

    • @EmilWilkensRC
      @EmilWilkensRC 4 роки тому

    Love your show. I have a Savox 2290sg and they claim 902 Oz. @8.4 v. It doesn't feel like that at all it seems a lot softer. Is there a chance you could reach you this Servo in your show or if not test it and let me know if it's an accurate statement of the servo. I used to like Sam off now I think they're loud and I'm not sure if they're accurate. Thank you for your time.

    • @leereed219
      @leereed219 4 роки тому

      I disagree with the reefs. I bought a 555 for my son's redcat, and it's slow as hell. They do good power, but just slow. My protek 370 btl is a beast, very strong, very fast, and seems consistent as hell.

    • @sitlos.
      @sitlos. 4 роки тому

      Lee Reed I have a 444 for my trx4 and it’s fast and strong. Protec is over priced usually. They are nice but overpriced.

    • @leereed219
      @leereed219 4 роки тому

      I think if I bought the 555 first it would've been one thing, but relative to the protek it's disappointing. At the end of the day, the 444 is working for you. I'm just more about spending the money once. I felt like a fool on the drive home after buying that reefs for 40 dollar less than the protek, but then more foolish after trying it, for not just buying the protek again.

    hey question. I have an arrma notorious v5 with smart spektrum setup. recently, I installed a savox sw2210sg servo. I have a fan on my motor and also the esc stock fan with a smart G2 5000mah 100c spektrum battery. when I turn my savox left and right a few times. my esc restarts itself. is there a solution to this? do I need a capacitor?

  • @bricmerc1961
    @bricmerc1961 4 роки тому

    Hi friend, can you help me with a question that experts can solve?
    I have two identic servos buy them in the same time. (brushless)
    One was working ay leadt about one year without problems.
    Yesterday I put it un a servo torque tester bench like yours, and shows 170 oz-inch.
    I remember ir was 220 oz-inch when was new.
    To confirm that I open the new one and test it. I was correct, shows 220 oz-inch.
    The question is?
    Why torque changes?
    The gears are good, not slip.
    The cable and power supply good.
    The current basic the same.
    The motor loose power???

  • @alexpeacock3870
    @alexpeacock3870 4 роки тому

    I'm sorry to doubt your exercise but there no explanation of the variables of servo arm ? The official performance must be relative using or not using a servo arm.
    Maybe I'm wrong but it's worth checking out.?

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  4 роки тому +2

      For servo arm, the critical part is using an arem where the hole is exactly 1 inch from center for the oz/in measurement.
      For the kg/cm, the hole needs to be 1cm from center.

    • @northsandiegorc4248
      @northsandiegorc4248 4 роки тому

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  4 роки тому +1

      It's coming tomorrow I believe.
      400 oz/in is darned good because most RTR servos output 125-150 oz/in. It's just the false claims that are disappointing. Oh and that noise. :)

    • @peternorin8554
      @peternorin8554 4 роки тому +1

      I agree but with 400+ at 6v is really good when you have alot of aux that cant go over 6v, like a normal TRX4 with diffs and 2gear.

  • @andrewnavales5739
    @andrewnavales5739 4 роки тому
