Default RE: Must Be Getting Better

Oh yah 1 last thing. That pin is not a shear pin. Its a retaining pin. A shear pin is meant to shear off in the event that something goes bad.Thats why this pin is made so strong.To retain the head. A soft pin will slowly deteriorate and may actually shear off in flight. This would suck at 30 feet in the air inverted if your head assembly were to come flying off.
