Compact Control with the Futaba S3157 Micro Servo

The Futaba S3157 Digital Micro Servo is designed for modellers who need precise, quick control in small electric aircraft and helis. Its compact form and reliable output make it a solid pick for tight builds.

Why Choose the Futaba S3157

  • High Torque: 21 oz-in (1.5 kg-cm) at 4.8V and 24 oz-in (1.7 kg-cm) at 6.0V to handle small control surfaces confidently.
  • Rapid Action: Moves at 0.10 sec/60 deg at 4.8V and 0.09 sec/60 deg at 6.0V for sharp input response.
  • Minimal Size: 22 x 11 x 23mm and just 8.3g, ideal for slim servo bays and lightweight models.
  • Receiver Friendly: Standard connector ensures easy hookup with common receivers.

Installation Notes for Best Performance

Fit the Futaba S3157 with secure mounting and correctly seated servo horns. Check linkages for smooth motion and avoid excessive force that could strip the miniature gears.

For pilots needing nimble, accurate control in small electrics, the Futaba S3157 balances speed and torque in a small package.

Yes, it uses a standard receiver lead so it is compatible with most hobby receivers and flight controllers that accept standard servo signals.
Set travel and endpoints in your transmitter to avoid overtravel. Trim mechanically first, then fine tune endpoints in the radio to protect the Futaba S3157 gears.
There are lighter ultra-micro servos, but they may sacrifice torque. The Futaba S3157 offers a good compromise of weight and power for many small electrics.
