Could someone please tell me what micro servo arms fit these servo's? I tried micro servo arms Hitec from DU-BRO but they seem to the wrong ones.
 
Cheers,
 Rob.

None - only the HXT 900 supplied arms fit. You can buy a set of 3 for around $3USD and they come with a spare HXT900 servo.

Thanks for the reply. Good times. I need to fit longer servo arms to them. Seems like I will have to buy a better servo so i can fit longer arms.

I have seen somewhere in HK there are metal or carbon fibre arms which can be screwed to existing servo arms. I am not sure whether they are intended for extending them or for extra strength or rigidity. Might be worth a look.

That is them. I recall seeing some anodised aluminium ones as well - maybe not on HK site though.

Er, I think they are a little bit to big to fit on a micro servo guys. I might just have to end up using them. Or making them fit some how.

Yes did not pay enough attention to the size. cant realy tell from pix but 3+ inch is bigEmbarrassed
sorry this is the only ones i know of from here have lot of the servos so i will check around and see if there is a longer SUB. My great plans zero used a peice of plastic glued to the arm to make it longer??. will get back if i find one that fits the splines and is longer.

Ok, my mate just found out for me.

GWS Naro - Hextronic HXT900 = 20 Splines.
 
So for those looking, these are the servo arms that should fit:

QIK-RX, that's an easy opperation.

Just find a suitable piece of nylon, - properly in a product in your kitchen.
cut i t to approx size, srew it on top -unmount again. use the holes as guide for the servo are holes (if you use the double version). Drill holes in the "extension"

did that often with my indoor HXT900 DIY projects
