Hey Fellas! New guy on the rock crawler circuit. I purchased a Wraith and for my son a scx 10....I have in my box o parts two JR8711 servos that I received from who knows where.
JR DS8711 Ultra Torque Servo (JRPS8711)
At the bottom it says for airplane use only. Anyone of you knowlegable folks tell me why these servos are for airplanes only?...Can I use them in th wraith and scx-10??
Also when installing a ubec...do I just plug it in to receiver or do I have to cut a one wire of the three from esc to reciever?
Thanks for help and thanks for a great thread! Very helpful!
I think I found the answer on anther thread.....
The only thing I can think of is the gearset, despite being metal, maybe isn't as durable as surface-specific servos?
That was always my understanding of it. The gearset not being able to withstand the shockloads a land vehicle would see in say the steering system. Aircraft servos see loads that are more steady (or ramp up more slowly) instead of shock loads (like hitting a rock while driving). I'd imagine the gearsets for land based vehicles are wider to better deal with shock loads.
This would be better in the newbie section but welcome to the board... Harley I have a ton of pics in the ttc picture thread of your truck from this weekend... Thanks for showin that you are just like the rest of us when shit breaks you gotta fix it.. Nice job this weekend ...
