Does anyone know if they make a micro to standard servo horn adapter ? I have a micro servo I wanna put a 1/10 servo saver on.
 
I guess nobody knows? I've searched google for hours, I can't find anything.
 
Thanks but I need something a little longer that has holes side by side. That's really why I wanted to use a 1/10th servo save on a micro 9g servo

I think this will work incase anyone else needs one http://www.revrobotics.com/REV-41-1364/

I kind of figured that you needed that style ,but didn't see any!

That wouldn't work either(it's a gear ad not servo splines), I have spent way too much on this thing to get it to work, I ended up taking a 1/10 servo saver apart and screwing the cover to a micro servo arm and that works for now, but I want it done rite. I have ordered this http://www.ebay.com/itm/381561121473?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Which is a micro servo with a standard servo spline and I also ordered a standard servo and servo brackets. I'll try the micro servo first, if it doesn't respond the way I want it too i'll just add a 1/10 servo.

Hi minilst2!

I am not sure if this is still relevant for you, as your post is from 5 years ago, but I found a solution. In any case I'll post it, as it might be helpful for others running into the same problem. There is literally no other solution posted online.

TLDR: Use part of a micro servo saver and press it hard into the full size servo saver. Voila.

Full solution:

All you need is a micro servo saver like this ones (https://nsdrcscaleparts.com/collections/accessories/products/micro-servo-saver-adapter), (https://www.lprcs.com/team-associated-servo-saver-and-horns-set-asc21326).

You will use only the part that goes to the micro servo. Turns out the diameter of the cylinder on the other side is slightly larger than the spline of a full size servo, so it works as the adapter itself. You just press it very hard into the full size servo saver, and the spline gets carved into the plastic in a super tight fit. If you want a bulletproof coupling, you can pour some super glue before pressing it in, but this is really not necessary as the fit is already super tight.

Of course, the downside is that you still need to buy the micro servo saver, so this only works if you really, really want to use a full size servo saver. In my case, the reason was I wanted to use a fancy blue aluminum one, which is not available in the micro size.

I leave some pictures of what I mean.

Hope this is helpful to anyone who runs into this problem!
