New Blue-Bird servo's on way.
 

Just had an email to say my New BLue-Bird servos are on the way.:D

Stu who is the UK stockist and is there a reccommended one for Off roaders

I got two of them, and they are ace.

Woody, if you intend to use the alloy servo arms, they may need drilling out.

Lee - The only ones I would reccomend right now are the 616 and 617mg+hs

The 616 is higher torque and the 617 is higher speed. I have raced with both and they were good. They are Futaba spline fitment - though it is a bit tighter than you'd expect.

think its CML http://www.cmldistribution.co.uk/quicksearch.php

CML don't, I beleivethey are just stocking the flight servos for now.

Bluebird 617 rocks, iam running that in all my cars @ the mo. I have some 661's to try too.

I got the 661 in the tourer, not ultra fast, but too fast makes the car twitchy, strong though.

Is there a small servo that could go in a 4wd to make room for brushless? also pretty fast.

stu i run the Futaba 9550 i think and its half the size of a standard servo. Not cheap though bout £80

Cheers Lee. I was meaning Blue-bird?

don't think they do one for car racingwoody - I ran a half height bbird in my rc10 but killed it on saturday - it's just not meant for that level of abuse.

ha ha sorry mate:o

Yikers they look pretty cool. I've found them for £30 so they are inexpensive, cheaper than Hi-Tec's. How do they compare to other brands? Is there a website I can check out?

Do tell me more.

I went from a KO servo to the BlueBird and found it nice on turn in, although it lacks the overall grunt of a FET servo it's still more than enough for off road racing.

For those who have used the Bleu Birds for a wile, do they center OK? I tried other cheaper servo's (HiTec) but preformance was fine but they just wouldn't center properly.

My servo's have turned up this morning. They look small but it is me. look pretty cool though. Will see what they r like in the cars.;) :D

Woody what did you get?
617s?

they are the mutts mate.

617HT+HS AND ANOTHER, THE 1 LOWER TO IT, CANT REMEMBER.

1 lower than a 617 huh, could that be the 616 ? :D:D:D:D:D just a guess.


I am running the 617 in the Tamiya 501X and the 616 in the Tamiya Keen Hawk
