How long and how wide are the flaps on your beaver Richard ?

Richard--whats the problem with the original servos?? I used to fly that for ALF many years back and the flaps worked fine then with no blowback !!!!

dave, i test all the servos 1 of the two flaps servos is twichy so it got binned, did all the servos tested on the bench, only 4 usable, so i updating the electronics to 21st century for safety reason best to play safe, and buildiung redundency systems test bed

As Bob has suggested, HS625mg are ample for what you need for this job, just don't bother looking for an equivilent from hk.

Here is the official Hitec servo chart

thanks all

Richard, one thing to do is keep it simple, don't over complicate things for the sake of it.

i am keeping it simple, just with a big aircraft the servo size gets a little bigger, so 645MG servos it is, no scrimping on the model, the only servo that will not be 645mg is the tail and tail wheel servo 25kg

i am hoping to have this ready for cosford or elvington, well it will be in it primer coat at least

Have you got your LMA test passed yet or will someone fly it for you. Regards from Sproutland

dennis

my red van driving friend how you been?

this is for the show so and some one will fly it, but also with it being a high wing it might be a buddy boxed at the flyins but at shows PRO pilot, the only time i will be actually flying it will be as the FPV camera, LOL

See you at EK
