How to attach aluminum servo arms?
got these flat aluminum servo arms with a Nitro models 85" Yak and have no idea how to make them work.
They're flat,have 4 screw holes surrounding the perimeter of the cnter which has about a 1/2" hole in it.

For thos, who do not want to be a mechanical engineer: 3W makes giant scale alu arms with serrations that fit right on the servo shaft of their B100 high torque servo's.

Yeah Hitec includes those heavy duty servo wheels for free. He can use those arms as is.

yes, the Hitec servos I have are heavy duty digitals (5985) and do come with heavy duty wheels, but they are on the big side ( O.D) probably like 2-1/4" they don't come with the smaller lighter weight white plastic ones and are too big to use with these arms.
Krayzc-RCU thanks for the pics. Guess I'll go with the one with the white wheel from the lower line of seros to make the arm fit.At least I have those type laying around
Will this hold up in an 85" 3D plane setup with a 64cc motor?
First venture into large scale 3D. Veteran of giant scale, just not this 3D stuff
Is it true that these need to also be glued along with srews and nuts as Taildragger726 mentioned?
Any special glue if that's a yes?

in a wreck they will but not flying. This plane has been running that set up for about 5 years now:
Its amazing some of the things that do not break in normal flying like the hardpoints were the horns are mounted, parts of the fuse, the new way of cutting up an engine box and the list goes on
