Chris001 wrote: Just going back to the servos, the recommended ones are the HiTec HS-65MG & HS-65HB it hadn't occurred to me, but these are the analogue models, I wonder if these are being recommended because the digital versions, HS-5065MG, might draw too much current from the BEC. It looks like most 10Amp ESCs come with a 1Amp BEC like the one recommended.

Havign said that the specs on HiTec's site look Identical, well actually the idle current of the digital is lower than the analogue.
HS-65MG
HS-5065MG

I've actually got a couple of HS-5065, so I'm tempted to try those to start with at least.


Chris - I also assumed the HS65 was digital but reviewing the specs again - The analogue unit draws max 600ma each but the digitals can draw 1200ma so Yes you need a strong BEC to use digital. I suspect wing twisting in tight turns may draw high current.

Too much worrying about things that don't matter. A 1A BEC will be fine for 2 servos.

Chris mentioned that

I've not met him, is Havign a new member? He sounds foreign.

Well you don't think I'm daft enough to put my name to some information that might prove to be wrong do you, Havign is my convenient scapegoat :evil:

Chris001 has OK'd me to run with this so contacted the shop who offered me 10 euro discount - min 5 Kits

SO WHO's IN for 79 Euro ?

please e mail me - kevin.ross20@icloud.com

I will advise my account for on line transfer (preferred) or postal address for cheques - I propose you advance me £70 initially and sort out any differences later. -
please also advise if you want me to obtain bulk prices for the critical hardware ( motor / spinner @ blades) - The servos are cheaper in UK but in the interim, I will investigate if the hacker power train can be sourced in UK

I'm in, email sent.

Well done on getting the discount Kevin, but do we have at least three other takers?
