I am installing HiTec number HS-625MG Super Torque Servos Analog on Raptor 60 with os70 engine. Are these good servos, has anyone heard of or had problems with the HiTec servos?

Thanks,
Blade2

What are you trying to get them to do? They are not that fast, but have plenty of torque. The centering will also not be as percise as digitals but they should work on cyclic and pitch.

Bill's right. There a little slow & dont center exceptionally well but are pretty stout. I used these on larger 1/4 scale planes back in the day.
One good piece of advice is if you use them, once the arms are set where you want them & screw in place use a little clear silicone & dob it on top of the screw filling the entire center of the arm till its level to keep the screw from coming out. Experience with MG servos have proven that any vibration will cause them to work there way out then there goes the neighborhood! The silicone - once dried- is lasting protection & EASY to remove when you want & by putting it in the hole after the screw is in no mess gets in the actual threaded hole
