Compact Power with Futaba S3002

Mounting and Compatibility Advice

The S3002 ships with white servo arms that may look like Hitec parts but are not guaranteed to be interchangeable. Avoid forcing mismatched arms onto the output shaft to prevent stripping and inspect the fit before installation.

A solid option for models where space and weight matter, the Futaba S3002 balances compact dimensions with practical torque and control for everyday flying and driving.

Will this servo work for my sailplane?

Yes, its compact size and smooth output make the Futaba S3002 suitable for control surfaces on many sailplanes, especially where space is limited.

Do I need a separate servo tester to set it up?

A servo tester or your transmitter makes setup easier, allowing you to confirm travel, centring and arm orientation before final installation.

How do I avoid stripping the output shaft?

Always check that servo arms match the spline and do not force third-party arms into place; use correct mounting screws and avoid excessive side loads on the shaft.

Is this servo suitable for a tail rotor on small helis?

The S3002 can be used on smaller helicopters for tail duties if its torque and speed meet your airframe's requirements; check control throws and loads first.
