Hello all. I finally have my GC3 chassis assembled. The standard servo is too big for the narrow chassis. Will a mini servo fit on the eritex servo mount? It's the front to back dimension thats too big. Length and height are are fine.

i had read that the minimum is 50 oz. for the dig. I found a tower hobbies mini servo that puts out 63 oz. That does seem a bit weak though.

The mini servo will work fine. That's what's on mine. It just has to be able to move the arm, It isn't held in place by the servo. |

You might look for a used Futaba S9551 servo if you find yourself displeased with the mini servo power.

That futaba looks like the dimensions will work. And great torque as well. Thank you for the advice
