I am looking for a couple of thin wing servos. I
know JR has a digital thin
wing servo, cant remember the number, very much similar to the Hitec 5125. I have heard it is the same servo, made by the same people, but with different electronics. Is that true? Just wondering because I know the 5125 gears strip easily, was wondering if the JR version does also. Thanks, Walter You could get the original thin servos from MPX or the thin
servos that were the basis for the JR/Hitec thins....Volz Micro Maxx.
Now they don't have gears that strip easily, and instead of tiny
wire whisker brushes, the have nice big thick carbon brushed motors, more torque
than any of them even at 4 cells, they draw less current than the others,
they come with a slick snap in mounting frame that easily screws into a wood
glue in frame, and they come with that cool no cutting off the lead and
soldering wires together, tiny VMS connector system. But of course its the
sort of stuff you'd expect from a servo designed for use in high performance
competition sailplanes. Oh yeah almost twice as fast too.
And now with a proprietary digital amp that is matched to the
motor and the use. It has a run time clock inside that the service guy can
read so you can find out if its a new or highly used servo at anytime in its
life.
Just thought I'd mention it. 10mm thin. Optimized for 4
cells but still functions down to 3...yet doesn't fear more.

I know I use em almost everyday somewhere in the world. 100
hours in less than 3 months.
