Hey anyone have a pain in the ***** problem with the tail rotor coming loose due to the silicone tubing? I dont want to put something to hold it on cuz I'll fear i'll end up breaking the whole tail off.
I think I'm having a similar problem with my Blade- Every now and then I hear a grinding noise from my tail rotor, and I've narrowed it down to the tail rotor separating from the Tail Rotor Drive gear, since the gear does not show any signs of wear on it's teeth, and the tail rotor mounting holes are starting to show wear as if the tail rotor is slipping out of them and grinding. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm considering just gluing the tail rotor and Tail Rotor Drive gear together to solve my problem, but if anyone has a better idea, I'd love to hear it!
Hi
Don't glue it together, do what I did and that is get a 2mm set collar and clamp it to the end of the rod. Since doing this I have had no problems with my tail blade wanting to come off any more.
