Lastly, I just gotta ask the question...How many pilots out there can
really, I mean REALLY, tell the difference??? Does it make THAT much
difference if your servo moves .0x seconds faster? Can you REALLY
feel or
see it?
Yes. I have a Pike Superior that never felt quite "right" to me. It
felt sluggish and I felt I was "behind" the plane. After Visalia, I
switched the stab servo (which was a JR DS368) for a Volz Micro
Maxx. Problem solved. The plane now feels distinctly more lively.
Do you REALLY think THAT is going to make you the next WC or get you
down on time and on the spot???
No, but the plane handles much better than before and is more
enjoyable to fly.
The proper approach to get more powerful or
faster servos, IMHO...Buy more powerful or faster servos to begin
with!!!
Exactly.
It never ceases to amaze me that some people will put over $1500
into an
aircraft (power, glider, heli) and then try to save a few dollars
on the
servos!
Amen to that! Same goes for batteries. For these high end planes,
it makes sense to install the very finest gear available.
That's my $.02 ~ Happy New Year to all!
Happy New Year!
