I have a Hornet II which includes the MS E230 one way bearing and main gear setup. The problem I have is that the pin they give you to secure the one way bushing to the main rotor shaft falls out. It is so loose, that once I get it in and spin the shaft, the pin slides right out. I am thinging of using a piece of a paper clip, and "z" bending the ends. I also thought a little dab of epoxy might work on both ends of the pin. Anyone else having the problem, or any suggestions??

I have the same setup that you do. Make sure there is no slop on main shaft, that will help the little pin lock in. I also put a small drop of CA on both sides of the pin and have not had any problems. Plenty of other stuff coming loose but not that pin. If you decide to replace the pin use piano wire from LHS not paper clip.
