Airtronics Question

Hey Guys
Is there an issue when using the airtronics 94358 servo with the M11x receiver?
There is a warning sticker on the side of the servo.
Thanks

The servo is an airtronics 94358.
The warning says "Warning Don't use with standard Airtronics or Sanwa receivers or damage will occur due to reverse polarity"
i have heard that this was an issue with older futaba servos or something but didn't know about this with airtronics servos.

Check to see if the order of wires in the connector matches the servo you've been using. If the order of the red and black wires is reversed, you'll have to switch them before plugging in the new servo.

That is from WAY back. Airtronics used to use a big, black connector instead of the current blue Z connector. The polarity on those was backward from what everyone uses now. So unless you have an old Caliber or CX2P, you are fine. If you did have one of those relics and wanted to still use it, you would need to swap a couple wires or get an adapter. I actually still have a couple of those. :D
