RE: Ahh the dreaded boom strike.
I was told to tighten the blades 'til I could hold the heli on it's side and they didn't move with a light bump. So that's what I had done. They might stand to be a bit looser, I dunno.
I had the tail rotor blades tighter than they needed to be according to the LHS. Not bad, but still too tight.
Yeah really. My 7 year old has been helping a lot lately to ensure that I don't over tighten and break stuff like a bonehead.
I just ordered my new parts from heliproz, including a set of Mavrikk carbon tail blades. I can't wait to get it back in the air.
