The core of the ES08MA II’s appeal lies in its numbers. While it looks unassuming, the performance metrics punch above its weight class.
Note: For absolute values, pinout diagrams, and dimensional tolerances, refer to the official Emax ES08MA II datasheet provided by the manufacturer. emax es08ma ii datasheet
Physical dimensions are compact: (1.26 x 0.45 x 0.94 in), with a weight of 12 grams . This “sub-micro” form factor adheres to the standard 3x screw hole pattern, allowing drop-in replacement for many 9g-class servos despite its heavier metal construction. The core of the ES08MA II’s appeal lies in its numbers
This is the primary use case. For small 3D aerobatic planes or gliders, weight is the enemy. At 8.6g, the ES08MA II offers enough torque (1.5kg-cm) to actuate control surfaces against high wind speeds without weighing the nose of the plane down. Physical dimensions are compact: (1
