What servos are you using? Please include photo.

my camera doesnt work but they are the model power hd HD-1440A Micro servo
will it work for this model?

 

[Mr NCT]

That looks too small. The plane needs a 9g servo like these - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L2SF3R4/?tag=lstir-20

so they wont work????

 

[Mr NCT]

From what I found online. Is this your servo?


That is a 4gram or 5gram servo and will work very well on any of the FT mini planes. The MS Spitfire was designed for a typical SG90 9gram servo that has these dimensions:



You can see that the SG90 is larger and heavier which means more powerful.

Your servo might work but it probably does not have the power (torque) to move the control surfaces of the plane while it is flying - that would be bad. The good news is that the SG90 servos are inexpensive and very available. On amazon in the U.S. they are $20US for 10 servos - $2US apiece.
