Hello,
I plan to start my Quark 2M build this weekend becasue i want to try something new on the slope...
The only thing i am not sure about is which servos to choose. The Ailerons are really huge (could be a problem for the standard HS81 with higher speeds?) and as this will be my first aerobat I don't know exactly what is more important - speed, torque, precision...? For my slope racers I never had to think about anything, the slim wing servos like HS125 were the only ones that would fit in.
So which servos do you use in your slope aerobats and what would you recommend?
Thank you

Hi Miki,
Welcome to the forum :D
For servos, everything is important (speed, torque etc), but maybe one of the most important, is the servo capability to come back to the exact neutral position each time (can't remember the English word for that (and I will not try in German! :D ))
In my case, I use 2 standard servos for the Elevator / Rudder, and 2 MG14 at the ailerons, everything hooked up to a 6v battery for speed and added torque.
And this is working just fine for me (went agricultural and on the cheap! :D ), but maybe others will jump in and tells you what work for them :D
In the mean time, don't hesitate if you have any questions.
Fred

Fred,
Any news when the short kit for the Quark will be available?

Hey Alistair,
Yep, files are ready, and they will be tested on Saturday!
If all goes well, they should be online next week hopefully! (That's if I receive the boxes for the kits on Monday, fingers crossed!)
The Quark should be even lighter! (most of the plywood for the wing etc, replaced by Balsa, lightning holes in the fuselage etc) to make it even better! :D
