minimum throttle servo speed
#1
What is minimum throttle servo speed and at what point will the increased speed not be noticable? Like will I notice going from a .10 to a .07 ? Thanks

Be aware that speed is not the only information you want to know.
Brands can mention fast speeds but you have to look at the angle too!
A servo with a speed of 0.1sec over 60 degrees is like 0.07sec over 40 degrees and there are brands using 40 or 45 degrees for their speed.
But if you have a fast framerate radio (like Futaba HRS or Spektrum 5ms framerate) you will notice the faster the better.

and mmostly that are the times without any load..
take a brand like Thundertiger DS1015 or a hightec and the times will hold with load..take brands like hmm Turnigy or bluebird and the time will fall when u got some load on the arm

A servo with less speed but more torque may be faster in the long run... because a less torque servo may slow down under high load. It's a weird inverse relationship kind-of-deal. You must have the perfect balance of speed and torque.

So now we are down to speed and torque. I got it. I was wanting to use a low profile and save some weight. LIke the savox 1251 .09, 125 oz-in, weight 44.5 gs. I heard get at least 100 and some say 150 oz-in torque for throttle and .09 was the ideal speed. Right now I have the AE 1015 .109 speed. Just want something faster. What do you guys think, would that savox servo work? I use to fly alot of airplanes and also used this trick for the throttle.
