Default Shuttle Plus and stabilizer bar

When I view my Shuttle Plus from the front, the stabilizer bar is not exactly 90 degrees to the main shaft (and the rest of the helicopter). The stabilizer blades will not follow the same track when rotating I guess. The stabilizer bar is in line with the stabilizer control arm, so the control arm is not 90 degrees to the main shaft either.

Is this a problem?

I can't see anything I can do to fix this, as the stabilizer blade goes through the center hub.

Not sure if I follow you but the stabilizer bar should be able to move freely up and down.

Forgot the question. I didn't pay good enought attention. The bare can ofcourse move in three directions.. up and down, tilt change the attack angle of the stabilizer blades...

Do you mean while it's in flight or sitting on the bench? A little offset is normal in flight. There are lots of reasons only a physicist could understand. But suffice it to say, it's normal.

While on the bench. Haven't been in the air yet. Need help from someone to look over the machine first, but haven't found any so far.

If you look at the links you will notice that the flybar needs to move freely while the heli is on the work bench.
