    Steering servo for 1/4 F1 with electric outboard?

    I am in need of a steering servo for a 1/4scale F1 hull with electric outboard?

    Its a MHZ Trident with MHZ Outboard z-drive and TP Power 5850 motor.
    We are talking nearly 2kg hanging of the ass of this hull

    What kind of servo are we walking here?
    Something like this beast?


    I run Sanwa/airtronics MT-44 transmitter, so it has to work with that.
    Any suggestions are welcome
    Cheers - Frank

    The gas guys are using these..https://www.servocity.com/servos/servo-gearboxes

    I tried to find a link to the 4000in/oz unit for you but ran out of time. Warning, they are very proud of them.

      Hi,

      This guy built a 1/4 Trident and uses a Savox SV-0235MG.
      I saw him running two weeks ago, a beauty !

      regards

        You Sir, should have a medal!!!

        I have been searching for very long to find any build pictures.. With no luck. You seriously just gave my project a very big push forward :)

        What a beatyfull boat. Such a big inspiration for my own!
        But I can see that a have to drop my Gulf idea Haha.

        Maybe Martini Racing instead then :)
