The Linear Servo Conversion Kit provides the hobbyist with a means of linearizing the output from a standard Futaba S-148 or S-3151 servo.

Normally when using standard servo horns to convert rotational motion into linear motion, the amount of output displacement from the servo is not consistent throughout the full range of the servo.

The Linear Servo Conversion Kit solves this problem and provides much more precise control over any application to which it is applied.

This breakthrough new product has been engineered with the serious hobbyist in mind. Using injection molding to achieve tolerances to less than the thickness of a human hair and 3D computer modeling, this is a truly innovative product.

Tested to withstand over 1 million cycles; this product is built to last!!

The unique solution utilized by the Linear Servo Conversion Kit uses a drum to coil and uncoil the output arm at a fixed radius to ensure linearity. The control horn is confined in 5 degrees of motion to maximize precision.

The drum is molded from a high performance co-polymeric plastic with high ultimate tensile strength and fatigue properties; while the housing is an industrial grade engineering resin made to withstand the harsh requirements of everyday use.

The Linear Servo Conversion Kit converts the 44 in-oz torque from the Futaba S-148 servo into more than 3 Lbf push/pull with a maximum travel of three-quarters inch.

NOTE: This Linear Servo Conversion Kit fits the Futaba S148 or S3151 servo only. Futaba S148/S3151 servo is not included. Installation of Linear Servo Conversion Kit requires dis-assembly of servo. Installation takes just minutes and requires no special tools. Instructions included. Conversion kit may work on other servos.
