Servos
Our customers are welcome to use this handy reference chart that we put together to help you figure out what Servos to use. These are simply recommendations, but should help you figure out what you need. Keep in mind your flying style or how hard you beat your plane around when selecting a servo. Also try to buy servos that can be used in more than one aircraft in case you want to swap them out. Metal gears are less likely to strip out, but they do come at a premium. Digital Servos are more precise and generally have more torque than their analog equivalent.
This chart is sorted by 6.0v torque in order of least to most torque. As you scroll down the list the servos get stronger. More servos will be added soon!!

| Hitec | HS65MG | .15 - .25 size control surfaces or 15oz to 30oz weight planes. Also used in 450 sized Helicopters. Great 3D Servo for strength and speed. Will take a great amount of abuse for its size. | Analog | High Torq | Top BB | Metal | Micro | 0.44 | 25 | 31 | N/A | 0.14 | 0.11 | N/A | |
| Hitec | HS82MG | .25 - .35 size control surfaces. Will take a good amount of abuse. Can be used as a throttle servo to save weight on Nitro planes. | Analog | Standard | None, outer case serves as bearing | Metal | Micro | 0.66 | 39 | 47 | N/A | 0.12 | 0.10 | N/A | |
Hitec |
HS325HB | Basic analog throttle servo. This servo can be used for airplane control surface as well, but does not have the torque to handle much 3D. Dirt cheap price for a standard servo that also has a ball bearing and Karbonite gears. | Analog | Standard | Single BB | Karbonite | Standard | 1.52 | 42 | 51 | N/A | 0.19 | 0.15 | N/A | |
Futaba |
S3004 | Basic analog throttle servo. This servo can be used for airplane control surface as well, but does not have the torque to handle much 3D. Dirt cheap price for a standard servo that also has a ball bearing and nylon gears. | Analog | Standard | Single BB | Nylon | Standard | 1.3 | 44 | 57 | N/A | 0.23 | 0.19 | N/A | |
Hitec |
HS485HB | .46-.55 size control surfaces. Cheap price for a standard servo that has more torque. Basic 3D flight. Wont take much abuse without stripping gears. Good servo for the budget minded. Hitec's recommended applications: Aircraft up to 72” or up to 12lbs when using just one servo per control surface. | Recommended by Extreme Flight for their Outlaw Delta Wing (also recommend the digital HS5485HB). | Analog | Standard | Single BB | Karbonite | Standard | 1.59 | 67 | 83 | N/A | 0.22 | 0.18 | N/A |
| Hitec | HS5496MH | .46-.70 size control surfaces. 6.0v - 7.4v capable. Good for 3D flight. Metal Gears. Fast servo for the money. | .46 - .61 Profile Planes. | Digital | High Torq / High Voltage | Dual BB | Metal | Standard | 1.84 | N/A | 83 | 100 | N/A | 0.17 | 0.15 |
Hitec |
HS5485HB | .46-.55 size control surfaces or great digital throttle servo on larger planes. Cheap price for a digital servo. Basic 3D flight. Will take more abuse than Nylon gears, but not much. Good digital servo for the budget minded that wants the extra precision of a digital but the cost of an analog. Digital equivalent of the HS485HB. |
Recommended by Extreme Flight for their Outlaw Delta Wing. | Digital | High Torq | Single BB | Karbonite | Standard | 1.59 | 72 | 89 | N/A | 0.20 | 0.17 | N/A |
Futaba |
S3010 | .46-.55 size control surfaces. First step up from standard 3004 servos. Basic 3D flight. Wont take much of a crash without stripping gears. Good servo for the budget minded. | Analog | High Torq | Single BB | Nylon | Standard | 1.4 | 72 | 90 | N/A | 0.20 | 0.16 | N/A | |
| Hitec | HS625MG | .46-.61 size control surfaces. Good for 3D flight. Will take much more abuse than Nylon gears. Fast servo for the money. | .46 - .61 Profile Planes. Extreme Flight Chin Yak 55. U-Can-Do 60. Aeroworks .60-.90 Yak | Analog | High Torque | Dual BB | Metal | Standard | 1.94 | 76.37 | 94.43 | N/A | 0.18 | 0.15 | N/A |
