Overview
The BLS325 is a low-profile brushless servo: 41 × 20.5 × 28.5 mm, 65 g, 25 kg·cm at 8.4 V. The 20.5 mm thickness is the point of the design — it fits where a standard 20 mm-tall case plus horn will not clear a canopy or a frame rail.
A brushless motor drives a stainless steel geartrain on two ball bearings, with a 25T-φ5.96 mm spline and a POM horn. There is no mechanical stop on the output, and the case is a CNC aluminium block with fins cut into the sides rather than a plastic shell with a heatsink sticker.
This page covers the TTL build: the same mechanics, commanded over a serial bus so several servos can share one signal line and be addressed individually. Useful when the actuator count outgrows the PWM channels available.
Performance at each supply voltage

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.0 V | 0.120 s/60° (500 °/s) | 17.5 kg·cm (1.72 N·m / 243 oz·in) | 190 mA | 3.5 A |
| 7.4 V | 0.090 s/60° (667 °/s) | 22 kg·cm (2.16 N·m / 306 oz·in) | 220 mA | 4 A |
| 8.4 V | 0.070 s/60° (857 °/s) | 25 kg·cm (2.45 N·m / 347 oz·in) | 250 mA | 5 A |

What’s in the box
- 1 × XQ-BLS325TTL servo
- 1 × POM horn set
- 1 × mounting screw pack
Optional: metal horn, sold separately.
How to size it
Torque tracks the rail: 17.5 kg·cm at 6.0 V, 22 at 7.4 V and 25 at 8.4 V. A 2S LiPo sits near 7.4 V for most of its discharge, so plan around 22 kg·cm and treat 25 as the fresh-pack number.
Stall current is 5 A at 8.4 V against 250 mA no-load. A shared BEC that also feeds four of these needs 20 A of headroom on stall — check the BEC before blaming the servo for brownouts.
FAQ
What makes it low-profile?
The case is 20.5 mm thick instead of the usual 28–30 mm, so the servo sits flatter on the mounting surface. That is what lets it fit under a canopy or inside a narrow fuselage.
Does it fit a standard 25T horn?
Yes — 25T spline, φ5.96 mm centre. A POM horn set ships in the box; aluminium horns are a separate item.
Is the pulse width table valid for this unit?
No. The microsecond window printed on the inspection sheet belongs to the PWM build of the same servo. This unit is commanded over the serial bus — ask for the command set and register map before writing firmware.
How many can share one bus?
The limit is the address space and the current budget of the shared supply, not the signal pair. Keep the bus ground common with the power ground at a single point.
