Key Features
- 35KG Torque Output — This servo delivers an impressive 35 kilogrammes of torque, providing the pulling power necessary for precise and responsive steering control even when your RC vehicle is laden with weight or climbing challenging terrain.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FMS FMT10 35KG servo suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. While this servo is rugged enough for experienced competitors, it's equally suitable for beginners discovering the world of RC for the first time. The 35KG torque is more than adequate for most standard RC vehicles, and the durable metal gear construction means beginners won't need to replace it after a short period of use. The servo's reliability makes it an excellent choice for learning on without the frustration of component failure.
- What makes metal gears better than plastic? — Metal gears are significantly more durable and longer-lasting than plastic alternatives. Plastic gears can strip, crack, or wear down quickly under heavy use, whereas metal gears maintain their integrity through thousands of steering cycles. This means your servo performs consistently over an extended lifespan, saving you money on replacements and keeping your RC vehicle performing at its best.
- What warranty does this servo come with? — The FMS FMT10 includes a comprehensive 90-day warranty from the date of delivery, covering defective units and manufacturing faults. Additionally, you'll have access to long-term official technician support, so if you encounter any issues or have questions about operation and maintenance, help is available from FMS's support team.
- Can I use this servo on multiple vehicles? — The FMS FMT10 35KG is designed with wide compatibility in mind, making it suitable for installation across many different RC platforms and scales. If you have multiple RC vehicles, you could potentially transfer this servo between them, though you'd want to ensure proper connector compatibility and that your receiver supports the servo's specifications. Consult your vehicle's manual or contact FMS support if you're unsure about compatibility with your specific RC model.
- How do I know if I need a 35KG servo? — The 35KG torque rating makes this servo ideal for vehicles requiring strong steering control, heavier RC cars and trucks, rock crawlers, or any application where steering precision under load is important. If you're upgrading from a lower-torque servo and found your steering response sluggish or imprecise, the FMS FMT10 will represent a noticeable improvement. For standard lightweight RC cars on smooth surfaces, a lower-torque servo might suffice, but the extra power of the FMS FMT10 ensures you're never underpowered.
- What's included with the servo? — The FMS FMT10 comes ready for installation. Depending on your RC vehicle's setup, you may need servo mounting brackets, linkages, or horns if your vehicle doesn't already have them. Review your vehicle's manual to confirm what additional components you might need before installation.
