Yep BK tail servo. Speed is 0.03 !!!!! super fast
It was ordered with the cyclics. But i had to get it from Amain as Helidirect was out of stock.
After paying, I went in search of motor and esc. Found Flying hobbies had what i wanted plus they had the servos
I could have got everything from one place and saved a bunch on postage.
But Flying hobby website was down when i last looked. Oh well its all on its way from various places around the globe
Waiting to decide what batteries to get. I need 3000mah 6S. Its my birthday in May so I know what i'll be asking for.

 

[HeliDinoRC]

Any word on arrival???

 

[cml001]

The rjx & bk servos... Aren't they the same just rebranded? Look the same.. Specs the same.

 

[murankar]

I believe they are. If I recall that's what Bert said on rchn.

Sitting in customs awaiting inspection.

Bert claimed there were some tweaks to the gearing, but I doubt it. Just different sticker, I'm sure.

 

[cml001]

Let us kno how they roll Lee... I can afford mks for my 450... Push'n it on a full size servo... I'm hope'n these aligns on the 550 r good... The ones that came on the 450 were terrible!

For the 450 get Turnigy 306G HV servos. One thing HK got right these are fantastic servos.

The cases are also a different shape

 

[HeliDinoRC]

My RJX seem to operate well. I did have to use spacers on both sides of the mounting tabs, not sure if that means anything regarding case height/machining, etc. However, the geometry of the servos and swash links is good. (excuse my terminology).
