Converting 5 wire servo to 3 wire

My Mini-Q Q7 servo burned up... again. Luckily I have some spares but they are 5 wire servo.
You can also do this to Mini-Z if you want to convert it to use standard RC electronics.
The car in this video is Mini-Q Q7 (link below).

I have been searching for this topic for a year ago, but didn't find any video on this. This simple video however, explained it to the fullest, thx a lot bro. This was very pleasant, and helpful.

Honestly i was waiting for this video for a long time !

Can I use a standard 3 pin gyro for the 5 pin steering servo system? What do I need to modify? Thank you 😊

I received a 284131 esc today for my k989. It comes with 3 wire small servo input and not compatible with the stock 3 wire k989 servo wire. And the throttle is reversed too. What can i do 😥

Hi Beaver, work it in a miniz mr02? Can i use with the board of the micro servo sg90? Thanks

And servo 3.7G, can you convert from 5 strings to 3 strings?

I have stock esc with 5 wire servo
Wanna change it to 3 wire esc for external receiver and still use the stock 5 wire servo
Is this posible ?

[jbsmedia]

This helped me out a lot, many thanks 👍

[meareAaron]

i wonder if the opposite can also be done like converting a 3 wire servo to a 5 wire servo so it fits on a salvaged micro receiver that only accepts 5wire servos

Title says "converting 5 wire to 3 wire", but the video shows converting 3 wire to 5 wire. And the video doesn't really show anything. The whole video could be replaced with a single statement "Swap the controller boards".

Great how can you run a 3 wire servo on a 2in1 esc receiver that has a 5 wire plug on the board thanks

Thanks for another great vid . I connected my mini z awd servo to a 5 wire to 3 wire board so I could use radiolink reciever . It worked but the servo would not work to maximum end point no matter what adjustments I made. I ended up installing a regular servo but that's another story! 😁

Hey Beaver l need a little help finding servos for my Atomic 1/28 car please help with a Link or suggestions thx

[danielafischer]

Can you please send a link to where you bought the 5g 5 wire servos? Or what to search for? Asking because I need one and can't find any.

[yianniskininis]

Thanks for the video!!! But l (like many others...) need to do the contrary! I have a xk A100 RC plane, that has a receiver board with a 5 pins servo socket! I am afraid I have a lot of three cables servos but none with 5 cables... Would you be so kind to explain how I could make five cables out of the three of the servo? Thanks a lot and greetings from Greece!!

[sitayhuber]

Is there a way to just solder specific wires together? I have extra servo extensions, but I don't have a spare servo to take apart.

[luismarioquintana]

You sir.... You are the greatest hero of all in RC world!!!

[nomore]

What if from 3 wire to 5 wire? Just reverse the procedure? Need a board to make it 5 wire?

[MrRc-zkgf]

hello I did the same, but I stay the turn the other way ... I swap the motor wires and get stuck spinning and it gets hot ... what can it be?

[getoutmecar]

So do i need to do the opposite to do 3 wire to 5 wire?
