Are Futaba and Hitec servo arms the same ?

Hello all!! Are the hitec and futaba servo arms interchangable. Do they have the same type spline on their output shafts? This is the futaba 148 servo and the hitec 422 servo- both just the standard bushing types. Thanks for any replies!!!

Nope! It may seem like they are the same but they really are not.

servo arms

I discovered last night that Hitec arms are smaller splined and will not even slip onto a Futaba shaft. Just dont mix Futaba onto Hitec or you will have a crash.
