Micro metal gear servo overview

The Futaba S3153MG is a micro digital metal gear servo intended for small electric powered aircraft models. It is supplied with mounting hardware and multiple servo horns to accommodate common control linkages. The unit is sold with a one year warranty.

Installation requires fitting the servo into the model's designated mounting bay, securing it with the supplied hardware, attaching the chosen horn and linkage, and plugging the J-connector into a compatible receiver channel. Use transmitter subtrim and endpoint adjustment to align travel and centring after installation.

Notes for selection: the servo's metal gears are suitable for light control surfaces on electric models, it is not intended for gasoline powered models, large gliders, or other airframes that demand high torque.

Compatibility

Designed for micro and small electric models where compact size and metal gear durability are required; avoid use on models requiring high torque such as gasoline powered aircraft or large sailplanes.

As a micro metal gear digital servo, the S3153MG serves as a compact control surface actuator for small electrics; ensure secure mounting and fine-tune endpoints and subtrim for smooth operation and reliable centring.

The package includes the servo with a J-connector, three horn options (20mm four point, 20mm round, 40mm four point), mounting hardware, and instruction and warranty sheets.
No, the manufacturer advises against using this micro servo in gasoline powered models or other applications that require high torque.
After mounting and linkage connection, use transmitter subtrim and endpoint settings to achieve correct neutral and travel limits, and verify smooth movement through the range of motion.
The servo produces 19 oz-in 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.
The servo measures 22 x 11 x 20 mm and weighs 9.6 g, with a lead length of approximately 170 mm, allowing flexible placement in small airframes.
