Alright what is the modification to get the tail servo to fit in the mount. Do I have to purchase a mount for the tailboom or did something come with the kit that I overlooked. I have the super combo and the tail servo that came with it will not fit. I have replaced the cyclic servos with hitec hs65hb. Thanks mike

Is the servo to Big for the mount or us the servo to small? All the tail servos that came with my 450's have been the ds520 style and are made to fit right in?

The tail servo that came with mine in way smaller than the mount. It is about the size of a hs55 my hs65 that I put on the cyclic are even a tad bigger than the tail servo. I will post a pic later for you to see I'm not sure if this servo will even hold the tail. I used the trex 500 tail servo at first to get a few test hops in, but I'm wanting to use the original equipment that came with the 450.

these are a little clearer, I am going to look at fabricating a mount for it. but will have to find the specs on the servo to even see if it will hold the tail.

So is anyone using this servo on their 450 and if so how well does it do. I have found info on it and it says it is used as a cyclic servo for the flasher 250.this is an analog servo as well not what is described with the 450 combo tail servo on the website

Must have accidentally got mixed up in packing. I would use the one out of your 500. The servos in my 450's that came with it are the PhoinexTech ds520 Digital Tail Servo, and the other came with the HD 3688HB Digital Tail Servo. Sorry for the mix up Call Rob at RCA and he will get one out to you ASAP

Yeah thanks chris, I'm not going to call I will just go buy a savox or another tail servo when I purchase spare parts for the helis during my tour in Korea.. I already replaced the cyclic servos due to one twitching at random so just threw them in the trash and bought hitec hs65's. I will use the 500 servo until I ship out for him to fly the 450. I have to pack up the other helis anyway for shipping to korea by late June. Enjoy the Bahamas I know I did every time I was there.

Dr evil, thanks for the link I saw that before and I have plastruct here as well to build the mount. The servo in my kit was for the cyclic on a 250 flasher and an analog servo at that. I don't know man just one thing after another. I will shoot you a pm later on, dealing with the boss right now about this.
