Well I discovered that my servo horn was cracked on my CR-01 yesterday so I need to get a stronger one. The one that was on there was just the plastic one that came with the kit. I need a Futaba compatible aluminum or metal horn for my truck.
Any suggestions will help!

Tower has a bunch of aluminum horns. You need something in the 3/4 to 1 inch size. I've been wanting one for a long time. Recently my Hitec 645MG servo stripped and instead of getting replacement gears I bought a Hitec 5645MG and it came with all the various plastic horns and an aluminum one, score!

Thanks man. I finally found some aluminum horns from Duratrax.

or tear down your original servo saver and fill it with epoxy...worked for me.

It looks like it would work.

I would like to find a replacement for the servo saver arrangement for my hitec. Since everything (tie rod ends, etc) is designed around a 6mm (approx.) standoff from the surface of the servo, I would like to not have to bend tie-rods to make another horn work. Aluminum or plastic, I don't care. I just know I'm going to need a replacement eventually. I'd rather have one in reserve.

Does anybody know what I need?

Racers edges makes a clamp style aluminum horn that is great and inexpensive

As 860Crawler said the HT 5645 Servo comes with an aluminum arm and is on sale at RPP for $42.

This is the horn alone:

That servo is pretty sweet for the price. I used that arm & servo on my CR01 & it fit without any mods. I recently broke the plastic arm in my Hobbico servo (Hitech spline) & I bought the servo above just for the arm & now I have an extra servo.

DRW-FJ40 · 12-16-2010, 06:34 AM

P.S. I would reccomend against a plastic replacement. If you have to buy an arm, the extra couple of $ for aluminum is well worth it.
