How many servos do you need for an RC plane?
Number of servos depends. Tail wheels can be driven direct off the rudder which means 1 servo for rudder, usually 1 for elevator, ailerons can have both 1 or 2 depending on the configuration. Also elevators could have 2. It really depends on the build.
What are RC plane servos?
RC Aircraft Servos RC aircraft servo is the electromechanical device which moves the control surfaces or throttle of the RC airplane according to commands from the receiver. The radio device which does the physical work inside the RC airplane.
What servo motor do I need?
Top three factors in choosing a servo motor Once the application is specified, identifying the peak torque, continuous torque and speed required of the motor will dramatically narrow down which motor is right. Torque and speed go hand in hand when selecting a servo motor.

Are all servos the same size?
Servo sizes Most hobby servos will be classified by their size. Different manufacturers might have small variances in how they list their servo sizes but they can usually be boiled down to three types: micro, standard and giant.
How do I choose an RC plane transmitter?
The number of channels you have relate to how many functions your plane or multirotor can operate. Each channel is essentially a seperate frequency which can control each action of the aircraft. You’ll have to decide on how many channels you need/want before purchasing a transmitter.
Are all RC servos the same size?
RC servos are categorized into six standard sizes shown in the table below. To help you select the correct servo for your project we have included an approximate weight and size specifications for each servo category.
How do I choose a servo?
Top three factors in choosing a servo motor
- Continuous torque.
- Peak torque.
- Speed.
- Gear ratio.
- Inertia.
- Accuracy.
- Environment factors.
- Efficiency.
What are the best servos for RC planes and helicopters?
We carry a wide variety of top quality servos for RC airplanes and RC helicopters. Popular brands include Freewing, Futaba, Hitec, and MKS.
How do RC servos work?
The electrical signals are, of course, the ones that are sent from the transmitter to the receiver whenever you make an input at the transmitter. RC servos come in many different sizes, and for various applications.
Are Micro Linear servos good for model aircraft?
Admittedly micro linear servos aren’t overly powerful (although not bad for their size!), but they don’t need to be when used in such lightweight model aircraft. RC linear servos are, of course, available in larger sizes and strengths but it’s the micro-type that really made a difference to the hobby.
What types of Servos do we offer?
