Default Using both Analog and Digital Servos together

Hi all

Just wondering if I can run both analog and digital servos at the same time?
Eg. use a Hitec HS-645MG (analog) on the throttle and a Savox SC-1256 (digital) on the steering?
I'm using a Futaba 2PL TX and R603GF FHSS RX. I cant find anything in the manual about this and from what I have read on the net it seems that I should be able to use both at once, but just would like to confirm this before I go out and spend the money upgrading to a digital steering servo.

Has anyone run both analog and digital? if yes did it work ok?

Thanks.

I run one digital and one analog Hitec servo in my nitro buggy with no problems.

Yes if you are already using an analog servo it should be fine. The only limitation I'm aware of is most analog servos can't be used with the faster frame rate settings some transmitters offer.

Thanks guys.

The radio I have Futaba 2PL doesn't have a digital setting, not that I can find anyway. I don't expect to get the full performance from the digital servo running it in analog, but would I get enough improvement to justify spending the extra money on the digital servo?

Thanks
