Pilot: Tom Richards
Plane: Setting up Servo Tester.

The G.T. Power Servo Tester - CCPM Servo Consistency Master makes it easy to check the operation of your servo or esc without using a transmitter. Once you have this, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it!

It is also a very handy servo driver/tester that can test the consistency and set the centering for up to 3 servos simultaneously.

This is great for anyone who is setting up an RC airplane, car, or CCPM 3D helicopter and would like to see if their servos are actually working or compare the response time of each servo before installing them in your model. Allows you to test and compare the reaction time of 1-3 ESC's at one time.
