man that sux, you are on one bad luck spell. hhhhmmmmm maybe that dalton weighs to much for that truck to pull around.lol

dave and i went to a concert last night and was goin to fly all day today. no wind but lots of rain.

maybe we can all hook up next weeked and do sum flyin. you have any muffs for the zdz???

ill look around and see if i have any jr servos you can have.lol  those 7950's are rated for 7.4v. maybe you are moving the sticks to far when you fly.

dave burnt up both rudder servo's in his plane today. they are 7955's. he was practicing knifedge going both directions and the servos burnt up. should they be able to take knifedge flight for ten minutes or is that too much on the servos

Yea , the size of that plane is close to a 40%er. I would say he strained them so hard snot bubbles where coming from there noses! For normal flying and light 3D 2 is fine IMO. But if you want to hammer it hard you need at least 3 7955s.
I ran 3 5955 on my 40% Carden Edge and had serious blow back. Same on the Yak. I then started running 4 on the rudder.
I have had great luck with just 2 7950s on my Dalton. Thats what I would recommend for the rudder on that plane.

dave checked them with the programmer and the one servo would do nothing. the other would only move one way. he has been complaining about how he couldnt hover the plane all weekend. he thought he was just having a bad day of flying. i wonder if one servo took a crap and made the other servo take all the load and burnt it up. he might have had a bad servo for awhile and didnt know it.  mine seems to be fine so far. i am going to fly the crap out of mine and see if the servos are hot. i am kinda worried since i have been getting lower and dont have that much of a buffer zone anymore. cant really afford another 4 g's on a plane right now.

Thats very possible. But I am sure that 10 min of Knife edge was murder..... (kinda seems premeditated) ... He murdered  them servos and you just stood there and let him do it...um,  um,  um *shaking head in disapproval* hehehe  
  The rudder on that plane is bigger than my 40% Cardens and 4 5955s is just enough. The 7955 is very comparable to 5955s in power. I would replace them with two 7950s on 6.5v .

Lets get together this weekend and throw down! I'll show ya how to heat them rudder servos up.... knife edge on take off 10 minutes of ke loops and then finish'um off with a blender! LOL
