The MKS DS6100 is specially optimised for glider fliers, with excellent torque and precision, and a very low deadband. It is a very high torque thin 9.5g servo suitable for many wing and fuselage applications. It has more torque and a better geartrain than all other servos of this size and price range.

At only 10mm thick this superb wing-servo can easily fit in thin wings. but with a low height of 23.5mm it can also fit in small DLG and other fuselages. With good 3.3 kg.cm torque and a reasonably good 0.12s/60° speed it is excellent for flaps, ailerons, elevator and rudder on many high performance gliders, DLGs, electric gliders, and faster sport slopers.

The extreme reliability and performance of these servos also makes them very suitable for use in film and motion picture industry special effect departments. They are also used in robotic, drone, UAV, UAS, academic research, military, and other highly demanding applications.
