Howdy all...sorry missed the Phoenix fun this morning due to the wifes birthday commitments....
Iwas just doing my pre flight check and oil lubing on the 450's ready for some flying tomorrow....spinning the rotor by hand something didn't sound right. Turns out the bolt on one of the swash locker arms that bolts to the fbl head has sheared off. Not sure when it's happened but I'm glad Ifound it before trying to fly it as it would have ended in disaster. Just goes to show you the importance of pre-flight checks...
Yeah I missed the Phoenix fun as well due to working night shift.
Glad you caught that bolt in time Jonesy. Would have been an interesting flight.
You live in a great part of the world, want to swap.
Parts arriving tomorrow for the GT so Ill see how that goes and got an email from oomodel asking why I have items in my cart?
I guess you know whats in the cart. To buy or not to buy.
@ Brian. Have fun and enjoy.
