Title: Just preordered mine....which tail servo?
Post by: mivaldes on October 11, 2017, 04:08:30 PM: Hello all!

Just preordered my 516 from Amain....

I know many are using the MKS9767 for cyclic. What should I use for the tail servo? Also having trouble finding a CGY750 in stock anywhere.....

I am using the MKS HBL980. Working great!!

Post by: mivaldes on October 11, 2017, 04:21:02 PM: I just realized I've got a Futaba BLS251 laying around from a TREX 600. Might use that, but may go all new on this heli!

Thanks for the recommendation Josh....(Is this the Josh from Denver I met this past weekend)?

Post by: Mike King on October 12, 2017, 06:56:02 AM: I too am using the HBL980 and it works like an absolute champ in the model. Tail holds like a vice even in strong winds.......... I agree with Mr. Cherry, it's fantasy :)

You use a Regulator for the BLS251? IT is limited to 6v. I am using a bls256hv I had sitting around, but those are hard to find .

Post by: mivaldes on October 12, 2017, 07:02:39 AM: The BLS251 was pulled from a helicopter I bought off of Craigslist, never flew, and just harvested parts and electronics. I'm going to go with one of the other recommendations here!

Thanks guys,
Marcus

P.S. Is there a way around the "verification" at the bottom of these posts? Most annoying ones I've ever seen....

Goes away after you post more. Keeps the troll bots off the site.
