Hello all, I have a HDS877 on my tail and I really like the servo and would like to try it on my cyclic.
I noticed though, that the servo has very small travel range compared to my other servos (currently bluebird 371) it seems to work properly with right geometry servo arms, it would need slightly more than 90 degrees travel from one end to the other but the best I can get with the servos with all EPA maxed out and my mixing maxed out (swash, aileron and elevator mixes to 100%) I only get 80 degrees or so (with my settings maxed out, when I move my sticks from one maximum to the other the servo stops moving from reaching its own travel limit before my sticks move all the way.
With the power switched off, I noticed that it is possible to move the servo arm more than 90 degrees (about 160 degrees) and the box on the servo says that the travel angle is adjustable.\
Anyone know how to achieve this?
and anyone else used these for cyclics? I would like a lot of travel since as it is the cyclic response is a little too slow for me at max travel.
Thanks
