Good servo, but not strong enough for flaps.  I've stripped two of them, and
I have friends who have stripped many more than that.

I bought a Pike from Tom Watson (maybe the one he refers to). To make a 
long story short; I stripped both HS 5125MG aileron servos on the first hard 
launch. It wasn't really the servos fault, aileron flutter was the real 
problem. I switched out those servos and put in a couple JR DS368 servos. 
The ailerons still fluttered. The DS368s were not harmed but rather were 
ripped loose from their mounts as the wing tips were ravaged by severe 
flutter. That is a very short version of a long story that in the end taught 
me two very valuable lessons:


1) JR DS368 servos are very much more robust than HS5125 servos. The 5125s 
may be OK for ordinary use but if you want servos that will survive a lot of 
abuse then the DS368s are better.


2) The Pike Superior in the SL (super light) version was not intended for 
hard launches with extremely fast zooms. It was made for early morning/late 
evening flights in low wind/light lift conditions where light weight is very 
important. It was anticipated by the designers that in low wind with hand 
towing you would not be able to do really hard launches with extremely fast 
zooms.


I don't own a Pike anymore. I use all DS368s on my Supras since I tend to be 
an abusive sort of guy.

Re: [RCSE] Hi Tech 5125MG Digital Wing Servo

2005-12-26 Thread Simon Van Leeuwen
Given the amount of severe abuse I dish out, the 5125 has demonstrated 
excellent results on F3B/J, 16 and 24cell F5B's, scale, and in one of 
the toughest applications...that being designing platforms to withstand 
the FAI F3B world speed record.


The latter experiences have generated flutter that has at times removed 
control surfaces during the lengthy vertical dive, only to discover the 
servo had either disassociated itself from the airframe or broken the 
linkages. The 5125's survived intact.


I have also utilized everything else that is offered, as a result I have 
elected to stick with the 5125. The 3 failures I have had with the 5125 
were dumb thumbs on my part...at speed.


It is noteworthy that some of the other OEM's are now offering a similar 
cased servo under their own brand name.

Do you just let the 368's hang out a bit on the ailerons?

My Supras are home made models with solid core wings. The servos fit fine.

[RCSE] 1/3 ASW-20 by Dream Catcher/Mark Smith Info Needed

2005-12-26 Thread Frank Deichsel



Hi,

I got a good deal ona 1/3 scale ASW-20 kit 
made by Mark Smith/Dream Catcher Hobby. Unfortunately there are no plans 
included and I need to know what thickness obechi the wing cores are cut for. I 
did some research but no success. The common thickness for sheeting seems to be 
1/42 here, but from what I found that seems to be too thin for a 5 meter wing. 
There is a wing made by Mueller in Germany in the same size which is sheeted 
with 1.2 mm which is roughly twice as thick.

Any info would be appreciated!

Frank
