[NSRCA-discussion] Servicing Servos

[colin chariandy]

OK, I got just over 300 flights on these servos so I suppose they really need service.
 
I'll package them up and them off to you.
 
Thanks
Colin.

Generally.  Sometimes a poor fitting cam or even a motor can be required.  I usually don’t deal with motors, as their cost (>$50!) makes it cheaper to get another servo…

Thanks Tony.

 

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

Colin:
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.
