Default Assocaited Servo Arm Question?

I just purcahsed a JR Z8800S Digital servo. I got out my T4 maunaul to see which servo arm to use. It doesn't list this particular servo, no big deal I thought. However none of the included servo arms fit this sevo. The servo appears to have less splines than most I have seen. Has anybody ran into this same problem? Any solutions, thanks.

Just use one of the servo horns that was included with the servo. I have done that with my Losi.

I always run the servos arms that come with the servo, much better quality.

The servo arms that come with the servo, appear to be pretty weak, and they ren't the right length. It hough for sure associated or someone make a proper servo arm for these new servos. Thanks for the suggesstions.

I just bought the same servo last night. The 23 spline arm fit the shaft. 24 and 25 were too small. The arms that come with the servo? The look flimsy, made for model airplane use.

I ordered the servo arm kit that came with my xxxt and it came with 23, 24 and 25 spline arms the correct length for my truck. Take a look at the parts kit that came with your truck, or order in a set. Be sure to get the 23 spline servo arm.

I have an associated truck. I think the arms you are refferring to are losi. Maybe they will work on my associated though. Thanks again for the help.

Gman...I run a JR 9000S in my T4, & use the servo arm marked J. It goes on snug, but it is the correct one.
