Default RE: Thecheatscalc's 36 tuning and assy

okisub, heh, yeah, the frame has finally given out on me I noticed that the autorotating gear wasn't meshing properly with the belt drive, so, I haven't been able to fly it for a while (again) fortunatly I'm getting a spare frame soon, so it should be back in action depending on when the ground delievery decides to take my package from HK.

PLEASE NOTE: when fixing problems that affect gear meshes, you may have to use the JB weld THEN taking a HIGH stregnth string (those airplane tire strands are 20lb test rated by the way, quite excellent, especally when I have a huge spool of the stuff) and wrap it tightly around two parts of the frame so that it would push the joint TOGETHER, get this as tight as possible, and if the gear meshes are good, then douse the strands (should be wrapped around 10x-15x) in CA after you tie the ends off. I put the glue and didn't push the ends toghether, well well, only the gear tips were touching.
