Hitec HS-65MG Servo in AE 1/18
Hi folks...I'm new to the micro scene after 10yrs in 1/8 nitro offroad. Picked up two SC18s for my 6 y/o son and I to play with at home. Upgrading a few things thanks to the great input on this forum. Purchased two Hitec HS-65MG servos...
Unable to mount these servos in the SC18s. The stock servo screw is M2.3 x 5mm and it appears I need something close to M2.3 x 10mm to use the AE Hitec Servo Saver (21049).
So...what servo saver are folks with the 65MG (not HB) servo in their SC18 and where can I locate a few M2.3x10mm screws?
Thanks in advance!

The screw that I use is from JR the part# is JRP980187 it is a M2.3x15 screw. I bought the Associated part#21326 servo saver it comes with 4 different horns and one is for the Hitech servo. Hope this helps.

I used the hs65mg In my rc18t. Fits nice. Had to use mounting blocks to mount it. I had a rough time finding the screw for this servo too. I ended up placing a call to Hitec and they sent me the screw free of charge. It was 2.3mmx10mm.

I had mines mounted in my micro rs4 for years sitting on the shelf and decided to install it on my 18r. Instead of screws I ended up shoo going it works like a charm.
