FRSKY Act 5200 Coreless Servo M5213H
The Act series coreless servos utilize a fully CNC machined aluminum protective case and benefit from metal gears. These high-voltage servos are capable of supporting up to 8.4V and offer both high speed and torque performance.
The Act series servos are available in a range of models to support different Torque and Speeds depending on your needs. These servos are ideally matched to models especially where power, reliability, and precision are required.
Features:
- High durability with metal gear and all-aluminum CNC machined protective case
- 8.4V high voltage capable operation with high speed and big torque performance
- Built-in dual precision balls bearing with potentiometer sensor
Why We Recommend This
The Act M5213H is a high-voltage coreless servo that handles 8.4V HV battery supplies directly — no BEC required at standard voltage, delivering fast, accurate servo response for control surfaces on large fixed-wing aircraft. A solid mid-tier servo from FrSky's Act series. FPV Builds RC provides U.S.-based product support and setup guidance for FrSky products purchased through our store.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference between the FrSky Act and Xact servo series?
The Act series (like the M5213H) is FrSky's performance HV servo line, featuring CNC-machined aluminum cases, metal gears, and coreless motors for high torque and speed. The Xact series is FrSky's premium tier and adds F.Port 2.0 telemetry capability, allowing servo position, load, and temperature feedback to your transmitter via the S2F Port 2.0 converter. If you don't need in-flight servo telemetry, the Act series delivers excellent performance at a more accessible price.
What voltage range does the M5213H support?
The Act M5213H is a high-voltage (HV) servo capable of running on 6.0V–8.4V. Maximum performance is achieved at 8.4V (fully charged 2S LiPo). Always verify your BEC or receiver output voltage is in the HV range before connecting — a standard 5V BEC will power the servo but at reduced torque and speed.
What torque does the M5213H deliver?
The Act 5200 series M5213H is rated in the mid-range torque tier for the Act lineup, delivering reliable performance across 6V–8.4V supply voltages. Refer to the FrSky M5213H spec sheet for precise voltage-curve torque and speed figures. The coreless motor design provides fast response and smooth positioning with minimal dead band.
Which aircraft is the Act M5213H best suited for?
The M5213H is well-suited for mid-size sport aircraft, trainers, scale warbirds, and aerobatics planes where a high-voltage digital servo with metal gears is needed but in-flight telemetry is not a priority. The CNC aluminum case makes it durable in field conditions, and the coreless motor handles repetitive high-load deflections reliably.
Does the Act M5213H work with any RC receiver?
Yes. The M5213H uses a standard 3-pin PWM connector and is compatible with any RC receiver that outputs standard PWM servo signals, including FrSky and third-party receivers. Unlike the Xact series, the Act series does not support F.Port 2.0 telemetry, so no special FrSky hardware is required — just connect it like any standard digital servo.
How does the Act M5213H compare to other servos in the Act lineup?
FrSky offers the Act series in multiple torque tiers to match different aircraft sizes and control surface loads.
