Status: offline 		I spent $50 for a fitter and turner to make me a unit that did not work properly. It used to jam up when the chopper spun round quickly and ripped the landing gear clean off the chopper. What you made is got to be 10 times better than what I had made and you casn get turn tables for nothing. GREAT WORK

If you set it so you have your main shaft directly over the turntable shaft it will work a lot better, did you remove the idler or belt so it spins freely? Put some holes in the turntable so you can drop a bolt through them at certain positions that way you can clamp it down and work on it and rotate and lock it in place. also might want to open up the bottom so if you drop a screw into the turntable you can find it without taking the turntable apart. Just an observation from making mine.
