Doesn't it come with an alloy horn?

you have a futaba horn? i wonder if its jr spline, i believe they are 24t instead of 23t like futaba

It doesn't come with an alloy horn (for a servo that can make this much torque the included horns are pathetic, but that's the price of choosing Turnigy instead of Hitec), and Futaba spline is 25-tooth. The Turnigy servo has 25T spline, but maybe the diameter is slightly different, just enough so the plastic can still squeeze on there but alloy won't budge. Or like I mentioned maybe the Dynamite arms is out of spec/tolerance slightly. I just don't want to buy another alloy arm of a different brand only to find it doesn't fit either.

OH, right, sorry, for some reason I thought it was a Hitec servo, guess I was dreaming :)
Well, all Hitec servos do come with alloy horns.. nevermind now..

the only horn that is 25 is hitec, the others are 23 and 24, dont ask me why hitec has the most teeth and its the smallest, kinda weird

From servocity.com: Futaba Servo Horns - These horns have the standard 25 tooth Futaba spline so they will fit all standard spline Futaba servos.

Futaba is definitely 25-tooth, and the Turnigy servos are also 25-tooth Futaba spline.

Hitec are actually 24-tooth.

Airtronics, JR, KO, Sanwa are 23-tooth

oops, my bad, i got jr and futaba mixed up, my bad

I just ordered a set of Hot Bodies D8/D8T plastic horns. They look pretty beefy and the plastic won't be so picky about fitting on the Turnigy servo spline. I eventually may get a clamping-style alloy horn, but for now the plastic will do.

clamps FTW :yipi:

i really hope thy didnt try to reinvent the wheel and come up with their own servo spline, that would be a huge down side to these new servos

i guess i will find out myself, cause plastic horns do not last very long. we could always dremmel something to work

they are futaba spline, i have a alu futaba horn and it fits right on

The Dynamite horn I bought must be the issue then. The teeth do look a little bit poorly done, looks like I'll have to try another brand.

i think im going to get the hotbodies one for the Ve8, the one i have now is ugly lol

well, didnt even last one race day, the motor id trashed, looks like there garbage

Ouch, that's a bit worrysome. We can only hope it was a fluke and is the exception instead of the rule. Sorry to hear about that Greg.

Were the endpoints set so the servo wasn't trying to turn past the mechanical limits of the steering system?
