New Blue-Bird servo's on way.
 
Just had an email to say my New BLue-Bird servos are on the way.:D

Lee 07-02-2007 10:59 AM

Stu who is the UK stockist and is there a reccommended one for Off roaders

DCM 07-02-2007 11:03 AM

I got two of them, and they are ace.

Woody, if you intend to use the alloy servo arms, they may need drilling out.

jimmy 07-02-2007 11:11 AM

Lee - The only ones I would reccomend right now are the 616 and 617mg+hs

The 616 is higher torque and the 617 is higher speed. I have raced with both and they were good. They are Futaba spline fitment - though it is a bit tighter than you'd expect.

mark christopher 07-02-2007 11:15 AM

think its CML http://www.cmldistribution.co.uk/quicksearch.php

DCM 07-02-2007 11:21 AM

CML don't, I beleivethey are just stocking the flight servos for now.

Bluebird 617 rocks, iam running that in all my cars @ the mo. I have some 661's to try too.

DCM 07-02-2007 11:39 AM

I got the 661 in the tourer, not ultra fast, but too fast makes the car twitchy, strong though.

woOdy 07-02-2007 12:23 PM

Is there a small servo that could go in a 4wd to make room for brushless? also pretty fast.

Lee 07-02-2007 12:28 PM

stu i run the Futaba 9550 i think and its half the size of a standard servo. Not cheap though bout £80

Cheers Lee. I was meaning Blue-bird?

jimmy 07-02-2007 12:33 PM

don't think they do one for car racingwoody - I ran a half height bbird in my rc10 but killed it on saturday - it's just not meant for that level of abuse.

Lee 07-02-2007 12:33 PM

ha ha sorry mate:o

Elliott Hopkins 07-02-2007 12:34 PM

Yikers they look pretty cool. I've found them for £30 so they are inexpensive, cheaper than Hi-Tec's. How do they compare to other brands? Is there a website I can check out?

Do tell me more.

Elliott.

I went from a KO servo to the BlueBird and found it nice on turn in, although it lacks the overall grunt of a FET servo it's still more than enough for off road racing.

janus_77 11-02-2007 05:43 PM

For those who have used the Bleu Birds for a wile, do they center OK? I tried other cheaper servo's (HiTec) but preformance was fine but they just wouldn't center properly.

woOdy 14-02-2007 11:05 AM

My servo's have turned up this morning. They look small but it is me. look pretty cool though. Will see what they r like in the cars.;) :D

millzy 14-02-2007 11:09 AM

617HT+HS AND ANOTHER, THE 1 LOWER TO IT, CANT REMEMBER.

jimmy 14-02-2007 11:41 AM

1 lower than a 617 huh, could that be the 616 ? :D:D:D:D:D just a guess.


I am running the 617 in the Tamiya 501X and the 616 in the Tamiya Keen Hawk

millzy 14-02-2007 11:58 AM

I ran the 616 last year and it was good, but the 617 feels much better in the b4.

also ran a 611, bit understeer in feel but then it is the entry level servo in the 600 range

woOdy 14-02-2007 02:42 PM

I think its 865 mg hs or something like that. It does start with an 8 anyway.

shinytopman 14-02-2007 07:10 PM

Off subject slightly, does anyone know an online shop that sells them the 617hs+mg?

woOdy 16-02-2007 11:12 AM

If any one wants a servo from Blue-Bird the you can speak to M-Troniks as they are the importers. Fantastic.:D

jimmy 16-02-2007 11:25 AM

Nice one, when did this happen mate?
