    Nooooooooooooo,

    Those OLD systems HAD a 1310 µs neutral ... from Robbe ( German brand ); Lextronic ( French brand ) and Multiplex had a 1.65 ms neutral, KRAFT ( US ) had a 1.70 or 1.80 ms neutral ...

    Now, it's 1500µs for Everyone !!!

    Thanks Alain...a lot of good info I wasn't even aware existed...
    I would've figure since these were servos in fast moving vehicles that they would've been a bit 'tighter' from day 1, with all the damage they could possibly inflict.
    More info to stuff in the head for future use...

    Talking a little New year present ...

    Hi,

    a little gadget for your servos ...

    xxx...84 shows the auto left>right>left>right ...etc. function
    xxx...84+ shows no auto function but allows a different neutral setting and memorizing ... and 1500µs recovering.

    note ... C4 is a little 1206 size CMS .22µ capacitor placed just between V+ and GND PIC pins, ... on the copper side !!!

    a Happy new year to Everyone !!!

    Alain
