In your earlier post, you mentioned the workaround for the 5645MG servo.I did as it was described to make the Hitec 5645Mg work on the Tilt. J
ust like me, there are others that have the AV130 equipped with 5645MG.
The connections made it work but Skyline does't work very well with hitec. It not as reponsive as the SC-1258TG servo.
I am not sure what are the reason behind it. The hitec is too slow to response and sometimes it gets stuck and does not move atall.
Also during the initial bootup for the Skyline . Unexpectedly the servo moves anticlockwise constantly and does not stop until the caliberation is completed on the skyline
Do we have a fix for this in the upcoming version or is there any plan to fix the issues OR it's better to switch the servo to Savox 1258TG

It won't damage it but if it behaves erratically, your flying will become difficult.

Hi Traderc,
The Hitec servo will start rotating before the Skyline sends it a PWM servo signal. This is the big problem. The reason the Savox work better is because the Savox servos play dead until we "power them" via the PWM servo signal.
So things to be aware of- the skyline sends two signal to each servo.
1. Standard hobby PWM neutral pulse. This is what turns the servos "on". Before this, they have power however are inactive. Savox servos and Hitec servos behave differently when there is no PWM.
2. Analogue pot input. The micro controller DAC generates the appropriate voltage to move the servo. Back when your servo had a pot, this varying voltage was created by the potentiometer wired as a voltage divider.
We can't create a firmware fix for the Hitec servo as its behaviour (due to its programming and hardware) is different from Savox. I'm very sorry about this. We've been selling our gimbals with Savox for over a year and did not expect many people to have other servos.

Hmm strange
I have very noticable "Jitter" on Roll and Tilt. is this to be expected, Or are you only recognising an issue with the Tilt??
Thank you

Hi traderc, to order, you create an account on the webshop, you log in and you can place item in your cart.
the pament can be done with paypal or bank transfert.

There is no 72 teeth wheel for the AV130 but a 66 teeth. you have to check first that your gimbal is a V2 one because I'm not sure the 66 teeth is compatible with V1 gimbals.
To see if your gimbal is a V1 or a V2, have a look here:

On the subject of the AV130, what BEC's are people using for the servo power? I'm looking at something that will work for 4s Lipo and 6v. I have no idea what Amp draw the savox servos use at peak. Can anyone suggest something? CC 10A looks good, but I basically need to double the cost to get a Caslte link to program it from 5v to 6v. Confused me is!

I have the cc bec and it's weird because on the av130 without the skyline it definitely does better on 6.5 volts. But on my av200 with the skyline it does fine on 5 volts.

Excellent. I'll order a few and the link. Thanks for your reply.
