Another servo question...

[fokaid]

I was wondering if anyone has used Futaba S3305 on their rigs? I just so happen to have one laying around, but havent seen any threads with info on this particular servo. I already replaced the stock servo that burnt after a month of usage. I will be installing a Castle Creations bec to help with the electronics.

Do you think it would be safe to run this servo without a bec? I would like to replace the stock servo since the last one I had burnt.

Get the CC bec and link then program the bec to 6v to maxinize the power to servo. Pull the red wire from servo and red wire from bec, connect together ( I use a folded in half staple ) don't forget to shrink wrap or tape. connect the servo to reciever as normal, power and ground for bec direct to battery. This way servo power is direct from batt controlled by bec without going thru reciever.
