Futaba S5050 High Torque Servo for Serious Model Builds

The Futaba S5050 High Torque 1/4 Scale Digital Servo is aimed at enthusiasts who run heavy or large control surfaces and expect precise, reliable motion. It is appropriate for R/C aircraft, 1/5 scale gas vehicles and power boats, and can often replace a dual servo arrangement on major control surfaces.

Notable Features

  • Exceptional Strength: Configured to handle significant surface loads without hesitation.
  • Metal Gears: Hardwearing gears for consistent performance over time.
  • Dual Ball Bearings: Promotes smooth shaft rotation and reduced wear.
  • Dust and Water Resistant: Sealing helps protect internals during outdoor use.
  • Heavy Gauge Leads: Provides better current flow to the motor under load.
  • 5-Pole Motor: Enhances torque delivery and responsiveness.

Specifications

  • Speed: 0.25 sec/60° @ 4.8V, 0.20 sec/60° @ 6.0V
  • Torque: 211 oz-in (15.2 kg/cm) @ 4.8V, 264 oz-in (19.0 kg/cm) @ 6.0V
  • Dimensions: 2.3 x 1.1 x 2.0" (59 x 29 x 50mm)
  • Weight: 4.5oz (127g)
  • Connector: Male "J" type with approx. 5" wire

The Futaba S5050 is a strong, reliable choice when upgrading larger scale models where torque and build quality matter.

Yes. It is commonly used as an upgrade where extra torque and stronger gears are required, but check space and linkage geometry before fitting.
The S5050 is optimised for large control surfaces on planes and surface craft. For helicopter tail applications, verify torque, travel and speed requirements to ensure suitability.
The servo uses a male "J" type connector with about 5 inches of wire; plug it into a standard servo port on your receiver and ensure your power source can supply the necessary current at the chosen operating voltage.
