Default Servo compatability

I have just returned to RC after almost 20 years. Can I use an older Futaba 9601 servo with my Spektrum DX5C and SR 415 receiver
Thanks

Yes you can but you have to be sure the frameate is on the slowest setting, I believe it is 16msec

also just make sure you have the plug so the polarity matches up. Sounds trivial I know but people do it all the time when mixing brands

Shouldn't be any issues at all. Can't see why you couldn't use any frame rate available on the 5C/SR415 combo. Have fun and enjoy!!

Because analog servo's do not work with faster framerates.
1/8 IC Fan and gigaplex like this.

Because we were talking about the 5C I was wondering which framerates it has. It only has a 16.5ms framerate so you are right that it will work with "all franerates".....
