Recommended Servos for FEJ or Skymaster F-86 1/5
Hello friends, Merry Christmas to all!!
I joust bought myself a Christmas Gift, a FEJ F-86 1/5, i have always dreamed of having this model, and now my dreams just came through..
I wanted to know in your experience what would be the recommended servos to use in this airplane, i am new in big scale jets, i fly a 1/8 f-16 and a Composite ARF Kangarroo, but the regular servos i use woint handle that much power.
Thanks,
Alfred.

Thanks for the info, it seems that those servos are already out of market, this would be the next generation for them: DS8911HV Ultra Torque Servo, for a price of 150usd. It seems to be ideal for the plane, lots of torque and speed.
The HItec HS-7955TG would be the second best choice, the good part is that is cheaper and good quality.
I think i will plan to use 7.2v for the plane servos, right now most of them runs on this voltage and better torque. I have a power box royal to use two batteries for backup.
On the receiver part, i have a Futaba FASST transmitter, i hear that futaba tecnology doesn't requires to have a backup receiver, with ony one receiver i should be Fine, is this true?
