Swash-ball mod for Dragonfly
Hey,
Can some of the Dragonfly or Hummingbird users let me know where they
ordered their swash-ball mod for their Heli's please. Most, if not all Hummingbird
parts fit the Dragonfly right?
Thanks

RE: Swash-ball mod for Dragonfly
So you bought the swash-ball mod already installed in the swashplate?
That's the only one I see on their site, can't you just get the swash-ball mode
and insert it into the existing swashplate?
Thx

RE: Swash-ball mod for Dragonfly
DuuhMojo,
You can buy ball-mod only and install it to your exsisting swashplate. It cost ~$10.00.
I've bought swashplate with ball already installed from greathobbies.com for $10.99. It's BTT Cupid swashplate (do a search and it will show up).
IMHO, I'd rather buy already-installed (cost almost the same) and keep original part as spare.
Most parts are interchangeable for DragonFly & Hummingbird. I've used some Hummingbird parts on my DF clone.
Hope this will help.
Regards.

RE: Swash-ball mod for Dragonfly
Just ordered it from Great Hobbies, I had seen the part a few days ago but I wasn't
sure if it would fit on a DF. Do you know if the shaft collar mode for the Cupid will
also fit the Dragonfly? They have it on Great Hobbies. "BTTB001 Main Shaft Collar Upgrade"
Thanks
