Servo horn issues

Hi all,

I have a worlds re release kit and have pretty much built up as much as I can. I am being sent a replacement top shaft as it was one of the incorrectly machined ones.

That aside the next issue that I have is that none of the servo horns seem to fit the servos I have available.

I have a savox sc0352. And a feetech FT5679M, and from what I have found out both take a 25t horn........which should mean a futaba one.

All of the horns supplied seem too small. Has anybody else had this issue, and if so how did you fix it?

I don't have a spare horn for the savox ( it came without it) and the feetech seems to have a huge bulky thing. Anything that saves me a massive badge job will be much appreciated

You have to push it on with a good amount of force.

Jeez you weren't kidding! Stripped the internals of a good plastic servo trying to get it on. The metal geared servo fared better and if went on after softening the plastic in a little hot water.

I just replaced the servo horn that the kit came with.

I also bought a losi aluminium horn as a replacement should the kit one strip. The kit horn is holding up so far
