Overview of the micro metal gear servo

The Futaba S3153MG is a micro-sized digital metal gear servo intended for use in small electric powered aircraft models. It is supplied with mounting parts and multiple horn options to fit common linkages, and includes a one year warranty.

Installation steps: locate the model's servo bay, fasten the unit with the supplied hardware, attach the selected horn and linkage, and connect the J-connector to a matching receiver channel. Use your transmitter's subtrim and endpoint adjustments to fine-tune centring and travel after installation.

Selection guidance: its metal gears make it appropriate for light control surfaces on electric models; it is not suitable for gasoline engines, large sailplanes, or applications that require high torque output.

Compatibility

Suited to micro and small electric models where compact size and metal gear durability are required; do not fit to aircraft that demand high torque such as gasoline-powered types or very large gliders.

The S3153MG functions as a compact digital metal gear actuator for small electrics; secure mounting and precise transmitter trimming will ensure smooth, reliable centring and travel control.

Fit the Futaba S3153MG into the designated bay, tighten the supplied mounting screws, attach the chosen horn and linkage, then plug the J-connector into the receiver channel. Finalise with subtrim and endpoint adjustments.
The metal gear train provides better resistance to wear for frequent light-duty actuation on electric models, making it a sound choice for flaps and small ailerons.
Use subtrim to achieve a true neutral position, then adjust endpoints to limit maximum deflection. Test movement gradually to confirm even travel each side of centre.
Yes. The S3153MG produces 19 oz-in at 4.8V and 24 oz-in at 6V; do not rely on it for applications needing substantially higher torque.
Dimensions are 22 x 11 x 20 mm, weight is 9.6 g, and the lead is roughly 170 mm to assist routing in tight fuselage spaces.
