Standard Servo Attachments Vs Modified Servo

Howdy, EzBers! So, is there any reason why the supplied servo attachments (horns etc) don't fit on the Modified servos?

As a result of this difference,...

Sabertooth In R/C Mode

Is there a way to use the control a Sabertooth in r/c mode rather than serial? I want to use it in conjunction with an r/c transmitter when the robot is not autonomous via the EZ-b (I'll use a multiplexer to do the switching). The problem I foresee is that I'll have to change dip switch settings each time I need to change from serial / EZ-b mode to...
