Power HD Standard Servo 6001HB

Overview

The HD-6001HB is a great, general-purpose, standard-size servo that gives extra torque without sacrificing speed. Two ball bearings help reduce friction and improve performance. The lead is terminated with a standard “JR”-style connector, which is Futaba-compatible. You can find more information about this servo under the specifications tab and in its datasheet (379k pdf).

The picture below shows an example of the hardware that might be included with this servo (hardware might vary):

If you are looking for a similar servo that is capable of continuous rotation speed control as opposed to limited-range position control , consider the Power HD continuous rotation servo AR-3606HB, which has almost the same size, weight, speed, and torque as the 6001HB.

Note that, as with most hobby servos, stalling or back-driving this servo can damage it.

Comparison to the FEETECH FS5106B servo

The FEETECH FS5106B servo is a lower-cost alternative to the 6001HB with nearly identical dimensions and similar performance. The two servos should be generally interchangeable for most applications. The picture below shows both the FS5106B and the 6001HB side by side:
