New alternatives available! We have released our own servo wheels that we recommend over this product. In particular, our 70×8mm Wheel for Standard Servos has almost the same dimensions as this wheel (see the picture below for a side-by-side comparison).

2-5/8″ Futaba Servo Hub, Solarbotics 2-5/8″ SW-B Servo Wheel, and 70mm Pololu Wheel for Standard Servo Splines.

The Solarbotics SW wheel is compatible with standard Futaba servo hubs such as those on the SpringRC SM-S4303R and Power HD AR-3606HB continuous rotation servos. The plastic wheel is molded from ABS and has a molded-on thermoplastic silicone tire with great traction and wear characteristics. There is a 64-strip encoder pattern on one side of the wheel compatible with the Wheel Watcher. The plastic wheels measure just under 2-5/8″ (69 mm) across by 0.3″ (7.62 mm) wide and are available in blue, yellow, red, and black.

Note: This Futaba servo wheel does not come with any mounting hardware. To mount the wheel, use the screw included with your servo.
