How do I slow them down? was created by Simon O

I have installed servo driven retracts in a ARTF model. I use Futaba radio gear with savox digital sc-025mg servos. Question is how do I go about slowing down the 2 servos that extend and retract the landing gear?
Many thanks
Simon

Not sure about Futaba as I am a JR/OpenTX man, but look in main set-up menu for motor speed then select channel to change

Hi Simon, as Phil said, some sets allow a servo slow function in the programming menu - not sure if your Futaba does this?

Failing that : www.logicrc.com/?ItemId=P-FS-SS&s=c:0,c:50,c:50-60,b:Fusion

If your Futaba gear does not have a "servo speed" function in the program menu - I have a spare device from H/K which splits one channel into three. Each one can be reversed and slowed.

Simon, your Tx 14SG does have a servo slow-down function (I use it on my flaps) and it's under the "SERVO SPEED" chapter on page 83 of the manual. I suspect your new 18 box has even better facilities.
