Ok,

So about 2 weeks ago, i bought a blade cp pro from someone. I just wrecked it for the first time today, and took it to the LHS to get replacement parts. What i discovered there, was that some parts have been changed over to an ESky setup. Looks I am still new to helis, so my terminology might be off. I know for a fact that the fly bar is from ESky, since it says it on it. He tried looking up the parts in the computer, but could not find it. Below are three pictures from my phone. If anyone needs higher resolution pictures, i can take some with my DSLR camera. Does anyone have any clue what part, or part number preferably this is? This is the piece that has two balls on both sides, which are connected to a swash plate on one side, and the flybar on the other.






I have been looking around at different parts online, and still haven't come across it yet. I am putting this both in the ESky and Eflite forums due to the fact that it could be either. Thanks in advanced for the help.

jrandazzo,

That head is not a Blade CP Pro head...at least most of it is not...possibly the blade grips are...

Not sure what kind of head it is, maybe it is an Esky since you said it was stamped on one of the parts...

Hopefully someone with an Esky can identify it...

Here's some pics of a Blade CP Pro head for comparison....

Good luck with it...

Glenn

Thank you very much for the quick response.


Well i think i found the heli that the head came from.

The 12th picture down shows exactly what i have. I wonder why he would have switched over to this? I called a few LHS and none of them order parts from ESky, and all said i need to order off the internet. Any chance anyone has a part number for this?

jr,

You are welcome.

Glad you found the source of the rotor head, that should help some...

Hard to say why it was changed over...anyone's guess...but it sure is easier to find parts for the stock CPP head, that is for sure!

You may even want to consider changing it back to an Eflite head, for parts availability reasons...

Good luck, hope someone can i.d. the part number for you...

Glenn

thanks.

I was just able to dig up the part number.

it is
EK1-0229

It does suck for getting the parts, since i have to order them off the internet. None of the LHS carry them in stock for some reason. I just ordered three sets so i dont have the constant down time. Thank you for you help.
