Product summary: micro metal gear servo

The Futaba S3153MG is a compact digital metal gear servo designed specifically for small electric powered aircraft models. It is delivered with mounting fittings and several horn choices to suit typical linkages, and is backed by a one year warranty.

Installation requires placing the servo in the allocated bay, securing it with the supplied screws, fitting the selected horn and linkage, and plugging the J-connector into a compatible receiver channel. Afterward, adjust transmitter subtrim and endpoints to achieve correct neutral and travel settings.

Selection reminder: the metal gears are appropriate for lightweight control surfaces on electric models and are not intended for gasoline powered craft, very large sailplanes, or other high torque applications.

  • 0.79" (20mm) diameter round horn
  • 1.6" (40mm) diameter four point servo horn

Compatibility

Suitable for micro and small electric models where compact form and metal gear robustness are priorities; do not deploy on models demanding high torque such as gasoline-powered airframes or very large gliders.

The S3153MG serves as a small digital metal gear servo for light electric aircraft control surfaces; ensure firm mounting and careful endpoint/subtrim tuning for consistent centring and motion.

The box contains the Futaba S3153MG with a J-connector, three horn variants (20mm four point, 20mm round, 40mm four point), mounting screws, and instruction and warranty paperwork.
No. The servo is optimised for small electric aircraft; very large models and sailplanes typically require higher torque servos than the S3153MG provides.
After installation and trimming, run the surfaces through their full range on the ground to check for smooth motion, correct centring, and no binding before flight.
The S3153MG is rated at 19 oz-in torque at 4.8V and 24 oz-in at 6V, with speeds of 0.13 sec/60° at 4.8V and 0.11 sec/60° at 6V as published.
The servo measures 22 x 11 x 20 mm, weighs 9.6 g, and includes a lead of about 170 mm to assist routing inside small fuselages.
