Head rebuild R-50 V-2 ?
Had a c$#!sh and am rebuilding the head.
For some reason my fly bar control rods are hitting the main rotor pitch housing (blade grips).
Some thing just isan`t right? I have done this right before...to many times.
What did I miss.
Thank You.

Nope..short side up. I was told that most of the head parts from a 30 and a 50 are the same. Ordered from one of our distributors from this sight and he was gracious enough to walk me through it . They go on an angle?????
Not straight up and down like usual?
Thrust bearing are in short side out .
Driving me nut`s.
Thank`s for any suggestion`s.

I think I got it, I had the wash out arms flipped the wrong way. I had to flip them so they 90~ to the main shaft.
Just needed to walk away from it for the night.

I was going to ask you to post a couple of pictures, glad you got it sorted.
I did the same thing last night, had a server that was kicking my butt over half the dang day, went to the gym, watched some baseball, loggged back in last night and fixed it in 15 minutes, I just needed to get away from it for a few hours.
