A note about Digital vs. Analog Servos
The SD-10G with the 10 channel receiver simply may be too fast for some analog servos. They simply may not work. To truly see the advantages of this high-resolution, high frame-rate, low- latency radio, you'll need digital servos.
If you are using analog servos and experience problems with the 10 channel receiver, and you don't have digital servos to replace them yet, that's ok, just use the 8 channel, 7 channel, or 6 channel receiver. These receivers ALL work GREAT with the SD-10G and are 100% compatible with analog servos.
