I just got a Dynamite machined aluminum arm from MK Racing, not fitted it yet, but putting it side by side with a std one, it looks the same size, so should fit ok, cost about £3.50.

[BostonNelson]

I got the Dynamite one from MK as well. Doesn't fit in my car. Had to dremel the top hole off and use the plastic top from the std horn as a spacer.

Haven't raced it yet but it seems to work.

But, the linkage is very close to the servo because you have to use the second hole from the top so depending on the shape/size of your servo case it might not work. Without some dremeling that is.

[captainlip]

would rather a straight fit if poss.

The Racers Edge horn is a sttraight fit. No need for mods. I'll post a pic.

[captainlip]

Ok super can you post a link to?

The Racers Edge horn is a sttraight fit. No need for mods. I'll post a pic.

I use the Racers Edge Pro to remove flex and backlash. Great mod! Definate improvement!
The Pro works with my Ace 1313, and 1510, but may not work with some servo's. Each are a bit different.

Do you have a part No/ and is it the same size as the original or do you have to cut it down ?

Is your track a real car breaker or something? I've only done 3 horns since I got the car in September '09.

[captainlip]

Where are you getting your's from fella ( racers edge RCE10380HA ) can't find it anywhere ? :cry:

[Northy]

You guys won't be getting a reply - he's banned.

The one off the CR, G ?

[Northy]

No, this one:

http://www.losipartshouse.com/servlet/the-26408/LOSA99031-Servo-Arm,-Aluminum-cln-/Detail

Or the correct one for your servo anyway.

Do you have to cut it down at all G ?

[Northy]

No, 'tis the perfect length :woot:

[stegger]

Cheers dude :thumbsup:

[stegger]

Anybody after these then here's the part no ;)

Losi Aluminium Servo Arm (FUT) (LOSA99032)

Losi Aluminium Servo Arm (HITEC) (LOSA99033)

Losi Aluminium Servo Arm (KO/AIR) (LOSA99031)

And they are only about £3.50 :thumbsup: Cheers again mr north.

[HyperFX]

Even at twice the price, this horn is worth the money. It clamps on to the servo, and removes all slack/play/slop between the horn and servo. It makes a big difference in the steering precision. I threw my Losi alu horns in the trash after trying the Racers Edge Pro horn just once.

[Northy]

Never had a single problem with the Losi horns at all, used them a lot.

If you think it's a little slack on the splines use a bit of weak thread lock on it ;)

[mikeyscott]

So this one for Savox

Didn't think people had problems with servo horns. I've set mine slightly less than the blog on the durango site.

[Northy]

That's the badger.

I like a stiff horn :blush:

[mikeyscott]

Haven't had a prob with mine yet, but may order this as a precation.

More interested in the Tresey servo saver

Yeh, if si at rclazy bring the tresrey stuff in it would be great :thumbsup:

[simoncrabb]

I use a dremelled Answer-RC horn, a last minute fix after I stripped the kit horns.

Tresrey are proving hard to pin down...

[GRIFF55]

i used the hong nor servo horns on mine. inserts for all servos and super strong.

[mikeyscott]

What size screw do you need for the losi horn? Also do you space it back out as it looks thinner?

Still mulling whether to order one..

[MHeadling]

Its got an imperial thread, I used a M3 tap and used a short M3 x 8 bolt and a M3 gold spacer that came with the car. Looks ace, and is nice and strong!

i know it costs alot, but fits perfect no messing about, looks the buisness and does what it should! no more stripped horns.....

on less weak point to worry about.

Yep, now it's just the servo gears you'll be breaking instead;)

[mikeyscott]

Hence why am still on standard part bs £60 servo

[HyperFX]

Yep, now it's just the servo gears you'll be breaking instead;)

Only if you use a cheap quality servo. I've been using them on all my RC's for about 2 yrs, or more, with no probs.

[captainlip]

nope because the servo saver is doing its job now rather than fully screwed up like before.

[AndyG]

which horn fitting is the equivalent for Spektrum servos ?
