help with rc servos setup?
Timothy O asked:
hey im making a weedeater powered boat out of fiberglass it’ll be double hull design but i dont have much experience with setting up rc servos to control the parts of the boat. basically i want something to control the speed, it has to be a servo with enough power to pull a light wire connected to the engines throttle and a servo to control the rudder(s).
what is the best way to get about doint this, should i get a old rc car and use its rc system or should i buy a new one, and what would i look out for when buying one.

Are you looking for something but can not find it, or have a question for us? We would love to help you. Just fill out the form below and we will get back to you as soon as possible.













The torque of your servo will depend on the size of your boat to steer the rudder.
If your boat uses a nitro or petrol engine then the same applies with the resistance the throttle cable and how much rotation the servo has to make to increase the throttle of the engine.
