Hitec Servos and Tamiya
Hi, I am a huge Hitec fan. Have had several hfx's, hitec radios, assorted BB, MG and Digital servos.
But now I am trying to figure out what to do with a simple Tamiya buggy, Baja Champ for my 7 year old son. (His first hobby quality car) There are no tamiya parts for their heavy duty servo saver for mounting to hitec servos. ( I only have working hitec servos.) But I do have some broken airtronics, futaba servos. I am tempted to make a hybrid servo, that has all hitec parts and gears except for the one that tamiya servo saver would mount to. Would that work?
Your suggestion?
Thanks!

Contact our customer service line at 858-748-6948. Hitec at one time did have a adaptor to use with our servos and Tamiyas servo saver. I am sure we can find one of these parts to send to you.

I did find a Hitec adpater when I really starting looking hard through all my stuff. I did have one before but didn't realize it. There was also one with the new servo.
The strange thing is, those adapters are labeled confusingly. It said something like "Tamiya only, for ratchet, stick radio only". I figured that since it came with my pistol grip radio, that it was mislabeled. It is the part that I needed.
