HS-7985MG Servo

The HS-7985MG High Torque Digital Servo has the added benefit of Hitec's new G2 second generation programmable digital circuit. This circuit has twice the resolution of our original circuit while adding programmable overload protection. The technology doesn’t stop at the circuit board, with a high performance coreless motor, dual ball bearing supported output shaft, bushing supported gear shafts and Hitec's Heavy Duty Metal gear train the HS-7985MG was designed to withstand the stress of larger high performance aircraft and on/off road vehicles.

How Far Will This Servo Rotate?

The answer to this question is partially dependent on what you are using to control the servo.

Stock:

With an Average Radio System:
67°
Your average transmitter and receiver will output a relatively narrow PWM signal range.

Radio System + Travel Tuner:
113°
Adding a Servo Travel Tuner to your radio system setup will allow you to achieve wide PWM signal ranges.

Wide Signal Controllers:
113°
Controllers such as the Servo Commander, Arduinos, and Raspberry Pi servo hats can usually send a wide signal.

Reprogrammed:

Whether you purchase the reprogrammed option or get a servo programmer and do it yourself, a reprogrammed version of this servo will be able to achieve greater travel than it can in stock form.

With an Average Radio System:
117°
Your average transmitter and receiver will output a relatively narrow PWM signal range.

Radio System + Travel Tuner:
195°
Adding a Servo Travel Tuner to your radio system setup will allow you to achieve wide PWM signal ranges.

Wide Signal Controllers:
195°
Controllers such as the Servo Commander, Arduinos, and Raspberry Pi servo hats can usually send a wide signal.
