I want to share this with My Friends, here at R/C Universe.


Order the XTREME Aluminum Flybar Hub from an XTREME dealer. Finally, we can get just the hub! !

Get some Carbon Fiber rod that fits snugly into the threaded ends; it is .060 or 1.5mm.

Rough cut two rods; epoxy inside the hub and press the rods as far as they will go. They fit nicely and will go in deep! I used 5 minute epoxy.

After glue sets up; Use calipers or a ruler to measure and scratch where to cut at the outer ends, and cut them to exactly the same length.

Add weights and You are done. (You may need to sand the outer area where the collars, etc. will go).

Mine is 1 Gram lighter than stock with 3 weights on them!
It is 4 Grams lighter than what I had, in order to get the same stability as the stock, using 3 collars on a chopped stock steel and plastic flybar, and the c.f. tubing re-inforcement.

It is UNBENDABLE, and will flex and snap back; it's definately rigid enought, but will flex when it needs to.

It is self aligning! Because it flexes slightly, even if it isn't 100% perfectly straight (and nothing is) the centrifugal force will do it for You!

Mine flies like a dream being just 5mm shorter each end and with 3 collars; and 4 Grams is ALOT to drop!

Oh, Yea,

Looks very nice. Great low profile !
