Responsive tail control with Futaba BLS254

The Futaba BLS254 Brushless Heli Rudder Servo is crafted for pilots focused on accurate tail handling in 3D flight. Its standard footprint makes installation straightforward across many helicopter frames, while brushless internals produce around 30% quicker response than conventional digital servos without increasing power consumption.

Durability for frequent flying

Equipped with two ball bearings, the BLS254 delivers consistent, low-friction operation and a lifespan notably longer than brushed alternatives. That reliability helps reduce downtime between flying sessions and keeps tail inputs predictable.

Complete fitting kit and gyro notes

The package contains a universal connector and several horn options: 21mm round, 45mm round, 32mm 6-point and 38.8mm 4-point, plus screws, eyelets and grommets for a secure install. If you pair it with a GY520 gyro, ensure the correct software mode is selected to match your setup.

Specifications

  • Torque: 53 oz-in (3.8kg/cm) @ 4.8V
  • Speed: 0.06 sec/60° @ 4.8V
  • Size: 1.60 x 0.80 x 1.50" (40 x 20 x 36.8mm)
  • Weight: 1.80 oz (51g)

The Futaba BLS254 is a solid choice for riders wanting a fast, low-maintenance rudder servo that keeps tail performance tight during aggressive 3D flying.

Yes, the standard size and included horn options let you adapt the BLS254 to many scale tail linkages, though check torque margins for heavy tail loads.
Thanks to brushless design and ball bearings, routine maintenance is minimal; inspect mounting hardware and links after hard flights and keep connectors clean.
It will work with many gyros, but when using the GY520 check and set the recommended software mode to ensure stable tail behaviour.
Coaxial models may require different linkage geometry; confirm fit and horn choice before fitting and test endpoint settings at low throttle first.
