Where to find CB100's servo arm??

ting · 04-01-2010, 03:10 PM

Dear All,

I would like to have a servo arm to replace the arm of an aileron servo, which been cut short due to canopy interaction.

Could you please point me to a shop that I can order this servo arm?

Thanks,

Unfortunately, you can't just buy the servo arm... you need to buy a new servo. The only way to get just the arm is to ask if anyone has an extra. Someone asked for one a few months ago and I sent him an extra one I had. Maybe someone else has an extra one they are willing to part with?

Thanks Steve,

If I can't find the arm....

Can I set the travel adjust of the Elevation and Aileron to 120-150%, Is that help? Any disadvantage?

Thanks.

You won't have the full range of motion of the servo, but if you don't need the full range of motion, and it works for you, then I say "great idea!"

Thanks again Steve,

If you still need a servo arm, send me your address in a pm and I'll stick one in the post.

Thanks so much Dusty, I just drop you a PM.
As I said, If there is anyway to save you the mailing cost, please let me know.

Hi Ting, May I assume you still have the Walkera 4G6? If you do, just buy a 4G6 servo set and use the servo arms from the servo set.

The servo arm of 4G6 and CB100 is the same and interchangeable. The 4G6 servos have a relatively short life expectancy and fragile in crashes so you'll likely replace them anyway soon and have not wasted any money at all. However, the servo arms are crash proof and likely last a lifetime, so you can use the old servo arms for the new servos.

I used to have the same problem as you but with my 4#3b(which uses the same servo/arms as CB100). I had spare 4G6 servos at that time and used the 'uncut' servo arms from the 4G6 servos into my 4#3b. Both helis are flyable at that time and I simply reused the old servo arms without issues.
