Futaba S3002 High Torque Mini Metal Gear Servo - Compact Upgrade  [S3002]

Futaba S3002 Mini Servo for Precise Control

The Futaba S3002 High Torque Mini Servo is a popular pick for RC hobbyists who need dependable performance in tight spaces. Fitted with metal gears and two ball bearings, it provides smooth, accurate actuation for both RC cars and sailplanes. Its sturdy construction helps it stand up to regular use.

Performance Highlights

With a 3-pole motor, the Futaba S3002 produces torque of 53 oz/in at 4.8V and 64 oz/in at 6V. The transit time of .26 sec/60 degrees at 4.8V and .21 sec/60 degrees at 6V ensures a responsive feel, useful for racing setups or precision flying tasks.

Fitment and Installation Tips

Although the S3002 ships with white servo arms that look similar to some Hitec arms, do not assume they are interchangeable as mismatched fittings can strip an output shaft. Verify arm fitment and secure the servo to a suitable mount to maintain reliable operation.

For hobbyists upgrading compact vehicles or gliders, the Futaba S3002 offers a solid mix of precision and durability that makes it a practical choice for many setups.
