Building Tips – Servo Plugs

Here are four servo plug and wire lead diagrams. We’ve included these for all those pilots and modelers who like to swap radio gear between airplanes, or who like to mix and match receivers, servos, and battery packs. Note that the plus (+) and minus (-)
leads are common across the receiver bus.

However, make certain that these leads are not reversed in the servo plug! as such a situation will likely cause damage to the servo, resulting in a trip to the repair shop. Also, you should know that while in most cases the signal to the servo is interchangeable between brands, there are certain brands that utilize a different shift on the signal—either positive or negative.
