Status: offline 		This is a "temporary" (which means it's likely to be permanent ) mod I've done to the main gear to keep it flyable until I get a new gear. Both of these gears have had teeth stripped (if you look at the bottom gear you can see the stripped teeth off to the left) so I made 3 fairly tight fitting plugs to lock the two together and align both sets of teeth so that no stripped teeth overlapped. The plugs were flared out slightly both ends so they can't slide out. The pinion gear on the motor is long enough to completely engage both sets of gears so when some stripped teeth arrive at the pinion the other gear keeps full engagement. The second gear obviously had to be hogged out in the centre for access to the drive pin.

Status: offline 		I have a HBK2 with a 3100kv brushless but was thinking of getting a 1#a. How would you compare these two helis? Is the 1#a an upgrade or just different?

Status: offline 		So do you think that the 1#a is an overall better heli than a king v2?
