Concept 30 tail pitch discontinued
Grettings, I need some help here. The older Concept 30 employs the H3045 and H3123 tail rotor parts. Does anyone know what will make for a simple convesion since the parts are not available any longer ?

i managed to change over most of my Concept tail to raptor parts. the gears i think i pretty much left alone, but the tail shaft and the whole pitch slider and blade grips are now Raptor. works pretty well too

RE: Concept 30 tail pitch discontinued
I too am determined to keep my Concept fleet flying for as long as possible.
We need to keep track of the possible substitute parts we can use from other models as our supply dwindles!
I envision a spreadsheet with kyosho part numbers listed next to the substitute numbers, along with a brief note explaining what the swap requires, if anything.
For right now, I will post in separate posts what I find out works as I try it. Unfortunately, the only other models being flown at my field are Raptors, so I don't have a chance to scope out other manufactures products.

No, all of my Concepts have the VR shaft and slider with the Zeal pitch arm.
The Century Hawk/Falcon/Raven tail case is a close knock off to the Concept/Nexus. The booms are the same diameter and the alignment lugs for the tail case are the same. It would'nt much trouble to switch over if need be.
