Shadow,
Not sure what you mean by "is it ok if there are pieces of belt all-over?"
If it is continually making "new" pieces you definately have a problem. If it is just left over from a prior incident, I personally would clean it up....just in case one of those little pieces ended up causing some other problem. [

Either way, if I were you, I'd have a belt or two on order ASAP. These types of belts, whether in a car, conveyor, or a micro heli are quick to fail once they become frayed, kinked, or worn.

You need to watch the belt tracking closely. Yes, clean up from when you threw the belt earlier. If you're eating a belt...roller guides....check 'em again. Ever since my initial incident...no problem and still using the same belt but I got a new one hanging in the bag on the bench just in case. Need to get a set of main rotor blades in here....god I hate woodies!
