which servos 5745 vs 805bb digital vs analog

[firefighter9780]

i am in the process of upgrading to dual steering and was wondering which everyone thought would be the best route to go for servos i currently have a hitec 5745 but it only has 208 oz of torque and didnt know if i would be good running 2 or if i should up grade to a 805bb like others are running with lots more torque. and is there any advantages to the analog vs digital servos and if so which should i be running sorry for 2 questions in one post

i run dual 5745s. they have more than enough torque and speed. i am not 100% on how the 805s perform but if you already have one 5745 why buy 2 new servos?

 

[firefighter9780]

i was thinking the same thing but it would be cheaper to replace a servo down the road at 30 compared to 70 . but i was leaning at getting another 5745 anyways

good point i didnt realize the 805s were only $30. i think the 5745 are more durable. don't the 805s have plastic gears?

you could also look at a single hitec 5805 digital. huge power. it even says it's best to run a Y cable to run power direct.

What do you mean by a y cable for 1 servo I think I will just get another 5745 what is the main advantge of digital over analog

 

[PISTOL PETE]

they are more precise. when you let go of the wheel they will always go back to dead center. and i know you can program the 5745s. not that you would need to do it on your ramp. i think you can slow them down and adjust the extent.

cool thanks i didnt know that you could program them i just figured some worked with some recivers and other with other ones thanks for the help

I think he means a servo Y cable on the battery? One end goes to the RX and the other goes to + and - of the servo (only the servo signal wire goes to the RX). Then the servo gets power from the battery and signal from the RX. Thats how I do mine.

The HS-5745MG is discontinued. The replacement is the HS-5755MG.

i just got my servo in the mail as i stated before i am running a 5745 do i bought another one and i was sent a 5755 and with looking at the specs the only difference is the torque output which is more in the 5755 so i would guess that i got a better servo but will it work for my dual steering setup to run 1 5745 and 1 5755 thanks for the help

you can get 805mg's....but their $50 bucks

can some diagram how the hookup would be for the Y connector running dual steering servos direct to the battery wouldn't one have too use (2) Y connectors and can you show that connection please thanks

 

[goldwing1800l]

i just got my rampage mt v3 and already one steering servo has quit i ordered (2) Hitec5755 can i use the same stock mount modified and how hard is this upgrade what about the futuba mount is it worth buying that instead of modding the stock mount

 

[firefighter9780]

i have the futuba on one side and the stock on the other the y harness just hooks up single side in your receiver and the other to the servos hope this helps
