Default alu servo horn recommendations

last night managed to strip 2 of the kit plastic arms so it's time to get an alu one!

Does anyone have an recommendations for the arms. My receiver is quite close to the arm also and there's always the driveshaft to clear.

TY all

I use a Losi 8 ali servo arm, only 3.99 and fits fine, all you have to do is run a m3 tap through it as its got an imperial thread in it as standard.

I have heard of people running the answer rc ones too

I use the Losi horn too, quick re-tap and you're in business.

well the screw and ball in the kit will clamp itself to the horn so drilling out the imperial thread shouldn't be an issue. so you stock those Simon?

I use the Hudy ones, as space is a bit tight.

I have Races Edge. It's tapped for metric so it fits straight in.
I'm surprised your plastic horn lasted as long as it did. That was the first thing I broke on my car.

The losi one has the hole in the correct place, not sure about the others.. (Use the top hole) retap it and space the ballstud out with 7 of the thinnest gold durango washers or equivalent.

Yes, we've got Losi horns, one of each type at the moment - 23, 24, 25.
