Bent slowstick fuse
Hello all
As I was prepping to build my slowstick I noticed that the metal "stick" that is the fuse was warped slightly. It wasn't much but it did get my attention. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I'm not sure how much of a bend you're talking about, but if it is very slight, I would use it to give you down and/or right thrust for your motor. Many people build custom mounts for this anyway, and it's a mod I'm considering; in particular, I think a little down-thrust would be nice!
Of course, if it's more than a little, I'd have it replaced. I've heard that the fuse does not tolerate being re-bent...

If it's too bent to use, call Horizon and ask for customer support, then GWS support. Tell them your problem and they'll send you a replacement.
