Description
The Futaba S-CD500 KS Knuckle Servo - 2.4kg 0.13s, part number FUT05102760-3, is a direct-mount RC steering servo for a drift steering system. It mounts directly to a front wheel knuckle rather than using a conventional chassis-mounted servo with pushrods and linkages. This creates a direct drive arrangement with no steering system slack or tie rods, while also freeing space at the centre of the chassis for weight distribution adjustments.
The S-CD500 KS is designed to be used as one of a pair of knuckle servos. Its direct mounting allows the steering geometry to be adjusted remotely, and servo movement and toe angles can change automatically in response to throttle or brake inputs when used with suitable electronics. The servo has a stated 2.4kg specification, a 0.13s response time and an operating voltage range of 4.8V to 6.0V.
Features
- Direct wheel-knuckle mounting.
- No steering system slack or tie rods.
- Zero operational delay within the direct-drive layout.
- Frees space at the centre of the chassis.
- Allows remote steering geometry adjustment.
Suggested Setup
Suggested compatibility includes a drift car gyro that supports two steering servos, such as the Futaba GYD560. A transmitter with two-servo mixing is also suggested, including the Futaba T10PX(R), T10CR or T6PV. These electronics support the paired-servo arrangement and the steering adjustments described for the system.
What's Included
- One S-CD500KS knuckle servo.
- One axle shaft.
- One screw, nut and spacer set.
- Two upper rod ends.

Specifications
Leading the field, as it frequently does, Futabas revolutionary drift steering system uses a pair of these high-quality knuckle servos that replace the traditional chassis-mounted steering servo and its associated pushrods and linkages. Mounting directly to each front wheel knuckle the advantage is an unencumbered direct drive system with no slack, no delay in response and a freeing up of space at the centre of the chassis, the latter allowing room to optimise the cars weight distribution. Other key advantages allow instant adjustment of the steering geometry and the ability for servo movements and toe angles to change automatically based on throttle or brake inputs.
Operational requirements for the CD500 KS include a drift car gyro that supports two steering servos (such as the GYD560) along with a transmitter that has the ability to mix two steering servos, i.e. the T10PX(R), T10CR and T6PV.
