Servo Horns
« on: June 29, 2016, 06:39:07 AM »
Hey guys... I'm try'n to restock the drawers in the Lab.. aka the heli room.. I had been using "Servo City's" brand Futaba wheels that we use with the Synergy cf arms and the small "X" horn. This morning however, when I when to the site.. I only see the "Futaba" brand. Kinda expensive at $3-$4 a pop. Used to get a bag full of these horns for a couple bucks from Servo City. Anyone have a link they can share to the "Servo City" brand wheels & "X" horns?

these are the ones you need for the N5C to perform optimally. I used to use the larger x wheels too, but these give more resolution and the heli just flys phenomenally.   https://www.servocity.com/html/6-star_horn__futm2010_.html#.V3PArt_6sy8 

that sucks about the wheels. I love those things. $3-4 a piece for them is crazy IMO, but looks like that is what we have to do from now on....

Yeah the price went up on those a while back. Sucks. Wish I had doubled my order while I could :(

Same here, I think I got in when they were like 30 cents a piece several years ago. Futaba must have found their name on a product and demanded they charge more ::) ::) ::)

They are right up there with JR now :-[

And it would seem that the entire heli selling world has no more than 2 "d" wheels or stars in stock! Aauuurrggg! It's all good tho, Levar to the rescue!
