Lets talk servo's

[Relisys190]

Considering BK servo's to replace my three Hitec 5245's on my cyclic.

Has anyone had luck fitting BK servo's into the frame? This would be an older E style frame.

Thank you.

Hitec 5245 Servo size = 32mm x 17mm x 31mm

BK DS-5001HV size = 36mm x 15mm x 35mm

It's close The hitec already have a TIGHT fit. I would require a few mm frame modification at least.

Any other idea's/servo recommendations? Cost is not an issue. Thanks.

I guess everyone is just running what Align supplies in the kits than huh?

Maybe I'll just buy another set of hitec's... they are good for what I do and are reliable. .

I'm about to install some Torq CL5180HV Cyclics & a BK 5005HV Rudder into my pro. Can't tell you how they will perform until in the air however they do fit.
The BK may need a small amount of Frame to be removed to allow the wide Motor to fit.

I have torq 5180's. My only complaint is sometimes one servo will fail to initialize, if I disconnect the battery and plug it back in everything works. And it's totally random witch servo will be affected. I believe it has something to do with the ar7200bx.Other than that they are drop in replacements.
