<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Guys I will ask some questions...for all your
information. When you buy an brand new 9411SA or 3421SA it will come with
a metal output shaft as Dave Lockhart has written.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The SA conversions that we pilots have been doing
is a customize thing that some of us started doing. When we told JR about
it...they came up with the idea of selling the 9411 and 3421's as SA versions
similar tot he 8411SA. To order a 3421SA gear set it will include all the gears.
But if you are converting older regular 3421 or 9411's in most cases the metal
output gear is fine as is the pinion gear. So we just convert the middle ones.
JR issued a part number for the new converts...the reality is it is a kit to
convert the servos. On the 8411SA's the kit even comes with a new name plate.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you order a 911 gear set or a 321 gear set as
Dave has said it will not replace all the gears in the servo. It only does a few
of them. The costs involved are with the metal gears. These are the expensive
ones.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It could be that in these specific cases of delays
in getting the gear sets that the metal output gear was holding up the show. I
will see if I can find out some more info on the situation. When you guys have
these problems contact one of us and we will help you a solution or even a work
around. Believe me there are lots of ways to skin a cat. Its not special
treatment for Team guys or Buddy's its that we sometimes have more info on the
subject that you might.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Guys,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>When changing the servos to the SA versions, to get the
right gear set it seems to work pretty well if you just drop the 4 from the
servo number. Example: 9411 to a 9411 SA just get the 911 gear
set. 3421 to a 3421 SA just get the 321 gear set. As stated
previously generally the metal output gear is left in the servo with the
remaining metal gears being replaced.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As it relates to the 9411, what nylon gear set

<DIV>Keith,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Metal gears are expensive.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The 3421 comes with all metal gears while the 3121, 3021, and
321 all come with nylon gears (save the pinion on the servo motor) - all
the gears are interchangeable.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The 3421sa has the metal pinion and a metal output shaft - the 3
gears in the middle are nylon (from the 3121, 3021, 321 servo).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you buy -</DIV>
<DIV>- 3421 gears - they are all metal (and expensive).</DIV>
<DIV>- 3421sa gears - you will get the metal output shaft (expensive)
and 3 nylon gears. </DIV>
<DIV>- 3121/3021/321 gears - you get all nylon gears (cheap) and you
will have to move the ball-bearings on the ouput shaft from the old
metal output to the new nylon output - or just re-use the old metal
output which is I believe what Troy is suggesting.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Troy, if that is the case, then why does
the entry on Horizon's site marked gear set for 3421SA (JRPSG3421SA)
show "Not Available". Also, it is marked with a price of $18.95, not
$3.95.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Go to the following link and look at the
fourth entry down and you'll see what I'm referring to. A while back I
had some 3421SA's in for service and they kept them for several weeks
because the gears weren't available. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you're correct on the gear set then
that's awesome, not only are they available but much cheaper. Perhaps
they're so new that it's just not general knowledge in the service
department, but that's hard to believe. BTW, the guys I talked to at
Horizon couldn't explain why the replacement nylon gears were so
expensive compared to the 8411SA, maybe you're onto
something.</FONT></DIV>
