Autopilot servo dimensions and weight

Post by Jamesgyore »

Good afternoon everyone,

I’m having a hard time finding the dimensions and weight of the MGL autopilot servos.

I suspect that the overall dimensions and weight of a servo with capstan would also be most helpful. I suspect rudder will require a capstan type of servo for my particular installation.

Can anyone help out with this?

Regards,

James.

The dimensions are in the MGL Autopilot Servo manual.

The weight of the servo is 1.34 kg. The capstan will add slightly to this weight but does no affect the overall dimensions.

Oh, thank you.

Plainly, I must have had a “man-look”.

By chance, would you have a RDAC XG in stock and on hand? If so I’ll head on over to your web site and purchase immediately.

Regards,

James.

Honestly you’re heaven sent.

This project is somehow coming together from every corner of the world quite easily.
