[NSRCA-discussion] Metal Servo Arms

[Ron Van Putte]

I know you ordered JR arms for JR servos, but be careful that you  
don't mistake "tight" with "too tight".  I made the mistake of trying  
to use a Futaba servo arm on a Hitec 5625MG digital elevator servo.   
The arm seemed to fit fine because it was "tight" on the servo.  A  
couple of flights later, I discovered dramatic elevator trim  
changes.  The Futaba servo arm was slipping on the Hitec servo's  
output shaft.  Wasn't fun.
