DC5515 15KG Waterproof Digital Servo for RC Cars & Boats

Description

The DC5515 15KG Waterproof Digital Servo for RC Cars & Boats delivers 15.2kg·cm @8.4V with a 0.11sec/60° @8.4V transit time, running on 4.8-8.4V.

It is built with a Metal Gear train, Aluminum Alloy case, dual ball bearings (2BB), waterproof construction, 80g weight, 40x20x40.5mm body, JR JST 300mm connector as standard.

A brushless motor removes the brushes entirely, which means less internal wear and more consistent torque over a long service life.

Rated for 4.8-8.4V: confirm that your BEC or receiver pack can supply the stall current of this servo before you install it, especially if you are driving several servos from one source.

Operating angle is available in 180°/270°/360° Optional, so the same body can be ordered for standard control-surface work or for winch and robot-joint applications that need more than 180°.

This torque class is the standard fit for 1:10 and 1:8 RC cars, boats and general robotics – enough holding force for rough terrain without adding excess weight.

Frequently asked questions

What does the 5515 in DC5515 mean?

5515 describes the stator: 55 mm diameter and 15 mm stack height. A larger stator gives more torque and heat capacity, which is what lets the motor turn a bigger propeller.

What torque does the 15kg servo deliver?

It is rated at 15.2kg-cm @8.4V. Transit time is 0.11sec/60° @8.4V. This torque class covers 1:10 and 1:8 RC cars, boats and general robotics.

What voltage does this servo need?

It runs 4.8-8.4V. Check that your BEC or receiver pack can supply the stall current before you install it.

Is this servo waterproof?

Yes, it is rated waterproof, which makes it suitable for cars, boats and outdoor robots.

Do you supply these servos in bulk?

Yes. We supply samples for validation and then repeat bulk orders with custom wiring, connectors and OEM packaging.
