Thanks Steve.. just bought one for 33.64 is that a decent price ? shipped

Yes,... I would say so, SJ.

I paid list price at LHS which came out to about $46, if I remember correctly.

Good deal. I've had no issues with the 645MG. Very reliable.

Just remember to give a little bit of servo saver to protect it some.

 

[Jeremy]

will do thanks

 

[xtremsavage]

SJ, you already order and pay for it? I believe the xtra one I got is that one.

 

[DOOBEEWHA]

Stock SS tvps, Anyone? OOPs... wrong thread.

 

[Jeremy]

SJ, you already order and pay for it? I believe the xtra one I got is that one.

yep allready paid for it

 

[xtremsavage]

Oh ok. Just lettin you know if you didn't order it yet.

 

[Jeremy]

np thanks !!!

 

[Jeremy]

I have another question ... will that servo accept the stock 25 tooth. servo horn ???

 

[xtremsavage]

not sure. My savage was the kit version so I used the one the instructions said to use. I can look and see if I have an extra if you want.

 

[Jeremy]

sure thanks bud

 

[DOOBEEWHA]

I'm not sure about that one, BUT....If you Bought the SS kit, there's a parts tree that has different sized servo arms that fit different brands of servo.

You can also use the servo disk that comes with servo.
OR... check HPI's site for the SS 4.6 parts section and locate the servo arm tree. Should be cheap. (I hope)

Hope that helped, SJ

 

[DOOBEEWHA]

Also...Anyone thats got an SS kit that isn't using a hitec servo, should have the arm as a spare.
I have the hitec so my servo arm is in use.
The three main adaptations are: Hitec, Airtronics, and JR.

 

[Jeremy]

well I bought this so it might have what I need I hope

[DOOBEEWHA]

Yep.. that should do it.

 

[Jeremy]

cool I hope so

 

[Jeremy]

Well Got The Servo Installed Last Night (had To Modd The Steering Linkage A Little To Get The Steering To Work Right) .. Because Of The Flm Bulkhead..anyway I Want A Alloy Servo Horn Does Any One Have A Clue To What Tooth The Hi Tech Servo Horn Is. I Allredy Stripped Out One Horn And Want A Metal One .. Thanks For Any Help. I Tried Counting The Teeth But It Was A Pain ....

 

[DOOBEEWHA]

Did you get the tree of servo arms yet?

 

[Jeremy]

Yes I Did Only One Fit (and It Didn't Fit Right ) In The First Place

 

[DOOBEEWHA]

Thats wierd.... I'm running the 645MG with a servo arm from that same tree.
I had no issues. Might double check to bag for the propper fit.
Unless HPI has a different tree for the 4.6SS kit, THAT should have the propper servo arm tree.
You should have three or four different possible choices of arms to choose from.

i wrecked the teeth on a servo horn once by just putting it on without the teeth lining up perfectly. those teeth are weak so I just forced it on and basically made my own teeth lol. still works to this day, i just have the steering trim adjusted funny.

 

[Jeremy]

Yea I think it was a 23 tooth mabey a 24 tooth .. but none of them fit right from the get go

 

[xtremsavage]

I'm not sure about the tooth count, but there are a couple choices for metal or alum. servo arms. great planes makes some that come with inserts for different brand servos. You should be able to get them at your lhs or I got mine off of tower hobbies. Just answers to your questions and hope they help.
