Futaba HPS-CT700 low-profile servo – Coming soon

During this week’s Shizuoka Hobby Show in Japan, Futaba are presenting their forthcoming new HPS-CT700 low-profile servo. Housed in an aluminium case the high-voltage compatible servo pulls 24.8kg-cm of torque with a speed of 0.09s at 6.0V input which makes it powerful enough even for demanding nitro applications. An all-black wire makes for a stealthy factory appearance. Full information will become available in time for the release. Also coming is an aluminium steering wheel housing for the 7PX high-end radio system. Made to replace the standard composite part, the exclusive alloy item will improve case stiffness and thus steering precision and handling of the transmitter.
