style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Matt, on
the subject of the JR DS281 mini digital servo, I have some
<BR>thoughts. I bought two of them last summer for a 3Dfoamy.com
superXtra <BR>(1.14m span, layered depron flat shockie, outdoors, 17oz).
I used them <BR>in rudder and elevator. I found them to be extremely
slow. This was <BR>supposed to be an aerobatic and slightly 3D plane,
and I wished I had <BR>installed faster servos. The airplane flew like
crap, so it wasn't a <BR>good test to evaluate the 281, but I used them enough
to figure out that <BR>they aren't the best.<BR><BR>I'll probably be building
a Stevens Aeromodels Edge540 this spring. It <BR>will weigh about 2
pounds, and from reading user reviews last fall, JR <BR>Sport looked to have a
servo or two that spec'ed attractively. I've <BR>never done a 2-3lb
electric, though, so I don't know which servo is
best.<BR><BR>-Adam<BR><BR>Rcmaster199@aol.com wrote:<BR>> The landing gear
