[NSRCA-discussion] Servicing Servos

[Atwood, Mark]

I assume the number changes for Glow vs Electric?  If so, is that 100-200 typical for Glow or E?  And what should we expect from the other?

Thanks Tony.

Is the Pot replacement the only work needed to recover the performance and give another 100-200 flights?

I do a lot of competition pattern servos here at Radio South.  Most of the time, you will be able to get 100-200 flights on servos, however there are some that say they can feel degradation of centering in as few a 30 flights.  Most of the time, replacing a pot will cost you around $20 per servo.

Generally, are people servicing their servos? How often (for glow powered airplanes) and does the service correct chatter about the centre?

Where is a good place to send Futaba Servos and what's the typical cost and turn around time?

Thanks
Colin.
