Here's a low cost alternate servo to the 805's. I use them and have decent luck. Easy to modify for 360 deg rotation and metal gears. $15 USD

Are you getting them from a North American warehouse?

No. Intl warehouse. I get stuff there a lot. Takes about 7-10 days to get to Vermont in the USA.

These are the servos I have used for my second InMoov. They are good with metal gear and really cheap actually!
But beware, the motor is fitted reversed, that means it turns the opposite direction than the HS805BB.
And it is restricted in rotation to 90 degrees instead of 180 degrees.
All that can be solved though.
-Unsolder the motor from the pcb board
-Reverse the polarity of the motor by rotating it in it's cage of 180 degrees.
-Add on each side of the potentiometer a resistor.

Has anyone tried the Futaba S3306 MG servo?

The HK15338 servos are slower , 0.20 / 60 deg @ 6v   than the HS 805, 0.14sec/60 @6V.

I've been looking on Aliexpress for the 805 servo's but I can't find them. Could you provide a link to them? Thanks

Here's a link for you.


As mentioned above the HK's are a little slower but the torque is comperable and they have an all metal drive train. For me the bug deal is that they are $15 as opposed to $40 for the 805's. It's a decent trade off and each can make their own decisions.
