What servos can I replace stick with?

[Excalibur3]

Which ones of these do I need for cyclic and a tail servo for my sr. I'm ordering the hk250 to put all my sr stuff on but I don't understand servos yet. I don't know which ones I need ( the tail servo is the most important ) cause I'm ginna use stick sr servos until they break I just figured I would have some extra cause they are cheap.


Blade Sr, Blade 450 3D,Blade 450 X,DX6I, Phoenix V4

Sorry here is my options I would like to use

None of those. A tail servo is important, especially on a 250. Something like an MKS DS95i or JR DS290G.

For cyclic servos, Hitec HS-65s or similar are good. IMO it's not worth having cheap electronics. I've tried that route before and I never will again, they just aren't as good.

Guys I don't want to spend a lot of money. It's just to get everything going and I'll slowly replace with high quality later. All the mms servos are on backorder from hk anyways. But which one of the above.

i like align ds410m for cyclic and ds420m for tail they work real good, reasonably priced.

Can't I use any of the above

Dude, the "above" is darn near impossible to see. Couldn't pick one from that list if I tried, better to put a link in your post. If the servo you see on the list says "tail servo" then use that.

I'll be more specific can I use this servo for tail. It's just to get me going and will it work withe the SR's gyro

I appreciate everyone's help but most of you are telling me I need to spend $20-$40 on this servo. It's just to test hover the bird so I want cheap I just spent a small fortune on my 450x. If all goes well I'm gonna convert everything to align later. That way my wife won't notice another Heli appear lol. My SR will morph itself into a trex 250. ( perfect plan huh?)

You can, but you probably won't be happy with it. Also, notice it has a voltage rating of 4.8V. Make sure your BEC doesn't put out more than that or you will need a step down.

I have built a few Trex 250s flying with 2S and 3S, if you plan to re-use the SR electronics, I would get a 18A+ esc, 401b gyro and a fast digital tail servo.

nice color ds420t is only 27.00 it works great.

Honestly, as long as it's the right size and operates with the voltage you have set up for, any servo will work. It's just a matter of how well. So the stock SR power system will work with that servo you have there just fine as far as I can tell, it's just a matter of how it will perform that's all. If it's just for testing, should suffice.
