There's a couple advantages for Sbus servos. 1. They can be y-cabled and still have independent channels, as all channels are always on the wire, this greatly simplifies wiring, and prevents issues like plugging in ailerons incorrectly 2. You get better servo resolution, as no resolution is lost in converting a digital value to PWM at the receiver, then a PWM value back to a digital value at the servo 3. There's the potential for servo telemetry and remote setup of servos (this is FBus only on FrSky, not with regular SBus servos).
@@randallpatrickc Y leads. Can then run one 3 wire standard lead from from of plane where the Rx is, all the way to the rear, putting a Y lead in at each servo placement. Eg all servos can be run from the One port
That servo programmer you were using, is it necessary to be a Futaba branded for the servos, or can you use an FrSky branded progammer for Futaba servis as well. Thinking Sbus is Sbus
For ignorant me, can you explain the benefits of sbus v pwm servos? Great to see you doing vids btw.

@@adam_mawz_maas ooh fascinating! How are they wired? Are there two sets of pins on servos (like smartport sensors?)

That's actually the FrSky Servo Channel Changer I'm using in the video. So you can indeed use the FrSky unit.
@@adam_mawz_maas thank you. And happy holidays from New Zealand
