If you are a serious giant-scale modeler, HP's new Servo Meter is an absolute must-have for properly setting up servo control in your big project.
HP Servo Meter allows you to take multiple servos and synchronize them (servo matching) for consistent centering and travel movements. SERVO MATCHING is a critical practice often overlooked by giant-scale modelers. In our large-scale airplanes often time multiple servos are required to drive a single control surface. Since no two servos are created equal, uneven centering or traveling between servos will surely result in contention between servos which renders servo motor working overtime to 'overcome' the contention. End results usually are;
- Premature servo failure to high loading
- Reduced battery run-time due to excessive current draw by servos
