Dig servo stress

[hibbs]

Hey guys

I got a Capra and didn’t buy the spektrum servo cause I’m stubborn. I’m going to make a mount for it but my question is if the servo is pushing and pulling the shift shaft does it have to use a spring? I’m guessing if it pushes on the shift fork and it doesn’t immediately fall into place it will put a lot of stress on the servo until it meshes and shifts. Anyone have experience with shift servos?

Mine will do that and it is the correct one. As far as I know as long as it isn’t a ton of stress it should be ok. You might be able to reset the servos endpoints depending on the radio.

I'm using a Hitec servo for the DIG. No problems. Just program your end points, starting as minimal setting as possible, and then gradually increase until you find the "sweet spot".

Perfect thanks guys! I guess even if it’s hard on it, it wasn’t too expensive and you don’t shift dig constantly just now and then. I’ll give it hell and see how it holds up.
