9xd / x8r /savox servo problem

Post by baggers50 »

Hi,

I have a 9xd plus running many X8R receivers and all works fine, I have just installed 2 Savox SG-0211MG low profile servos in the wing. When I operate these servos they intermittently stall or stop for a fraction of a second and return to normal. I obviously cant fly with this but wondered if anybody had a solution? If I plug in analogue or even digital servos into the outputs all is fine. Looking online people suggest it may be a frequency issue?

Thanks
Ian B

You can try disabling telemetry on the receiver to see if it's the RF that affects them.

Seems some people suggest it could be a power supply issue... otherwise, just crappy servos.
