i think the swash is different too, definitely rotor head (top most piece) feathering shaft and blade grips

matador how often do you wreck? if you still wreck allot then you want to keep the V1 head. it bends the feathering shaft. the V2 head will bend the head piece and thats a 32 dollar piece instead of $3. my first wreck bent mine..

the only difference is the bearing in the flybar seesaw holder [instead of the brass bushing] the head piece ive heard is close enough to interchange so after that would be the dampners, feathering shaft and blade grips/ bearings. oh and the head button but that can be used from a v1

I still crash often, my concern was because I have seen that some sites don't sell V1 spare parts anymore, such as feathering shaft, grips, etc, but I think I am gonna stick with the V1 for a while and I guess some day I'll have to get a V2 head to upgrade.... thanks!
