TEAM TIP: This is the easiest point at which to center your servo. The quickest way
to do this is to plug the servo into another car, and power it on briefly.
Alternatively, if you have the electronics you’ll be installing in your X – 6 Squared
handy, simply hook the battery, speed controller, receiver, and servo. Turn it on
long enough for the servo to power up and center itself (and who can resist
moving the transmitter just a little?). You’ll do the fine adjustments once
everything is installed in the car; this quick centering process gets the servo in
the ballpark.

Remove the servo horn tree (ASC
9180); notice each horn has a letter on
it. Choose the horn appropriate for
your servo:
A – Airtronics/Sanwa
H – Hitec
J – JR and KO
F – Futaba
The only difference in the horns is the number of splines; if the horn seems
unusually hard to install on your servo try a different horn. With the servo
centered, put the horn on pointing straight up. (left) Carefully remove the horn
and move it one spline to the right, or clockwise. (center) Secure the horn with
the bolt included with your servo. (right)

Find the 3/16” ball stud (6170) in the hardware bag for
installation in the servo horn. If you’re installing the
servo in the forward position, you’ll want to put the ball
stud in from the back, so it faces the servo (shown in
these pictures). If the servo will be in the rear position,
install the ball stud from the front of the servo horn.
