Hi, is it a good idea to use hs5945 on a 50cc airplane? Or should I got something with more torque?

I'm putting together a 1/3 / 4.2 / 20 lb. Laser 200 with these on the ailerons and elev. on 6 volts. I'm not the LEAST bit worried about their ability to do the job.

hi no problems.There are a few big 100cc planes in aus running them,the planes that were built before the 5955 came out.
i have 3x5945 on each wing of a 40% plane,,the gear train does wear out & become slopy but they still work fine

The 5945's were superceeded with the 5985 and upgraded version with a stronger pot. This happened over a year ago but some hobby outlets still stock and sell the 5945's.

I like the 5945's and have them in more than one plane, they are fast and strong. I did however manage to wear out a pair on the ailerons of my Extreme Flight 88 inch Yak. They had just enough play in the gear train to allow a low speed flutter that was noticed on a low inverted flyby. I flew them long and hard and the servo's had over[Edit 40] hours of aerobatics on them.

The 5955's do cost more but will likely outlast--barring crashes-- being more cost effective in the long run.

If you have them they will work just fine. If you have to buy them they will still work just fine but you may want to consider the 5955 servos for later use. The titanium gears in the 5955 make for a very low wear servo.

I've got 5945 in both my 1/4 scale Edge & my 28%, works great.
