Futaba S3157M Digital Micro Servo - Compact precision for RC use

The Futaba S3157M Digital Micro Servo brings accurate, responsive control to small-scale RC models. Its lightweight construction and consistent performance make it a practical choice for tight installations that demand precise steering or control surfaces.

Speed and Torque Details

Built for efficiency, the S3157M provides a useful balance of speed and torque for many RC roles. At 4.8V it runs at 0.1 sec per 60 degrees with 1.5 kg.cm of torque, and at 6.0V it improves to 0.09 sec per 60 degrees with 1.7 kg.cm of torque. These figures suit applications needing both quick response and modest power.

Small Footprint

With compact dimensions of 21.8 x 11 x 23.2mm and a weight of 7.9g, the Futaba S3157M fits where space is limited. Its micro size preserves performance while freeing room for other electronics in tight builds.

Specifications

  • Speed: 0.1 sec/60 degrees at 4.8V, 0.09 sec/60 degrees at 6.0V
  • Torque: 1.5 kg.cm at 4.8V, 1.7 kg.cm at 6.0V
  • Dimensions: 21.8 x 11 x 23.2mm
  • Weight: 7.9g
Yes, its small size and decent speed make it well suited to steering duties in micro and 1/18 scale cars where space and weight are constrained.
Running at 6.0V offers a bit faster travel and higher torque; ensure your receiver and power supply support that voltage for reliable operation.
The dimensions are typical for micro servos, but always check clearance and horn compatibility when fitting into tight bays or custom mounts.
