Default BVM Brass Coupler replacement?

part no. BVM #1318

those are used for disconnecting the Gear Door Cylinder from the 1/16" pushrod (when removing the wing) on Aggressor III / Ultra Viper

is there something similar?

if someone still has a pair they don't need please PM me. I will be glad to buy them from you.

Did you contact BVM?
We probably have them in stock. They are also used on the Classic Bandit, and the Classic Balsa Bandit.
I'll check Monday.

That would be great! Thanks

I did a search for the part no. and nothing came up so I figured they don't keep old parts.

Yes Harley, thanks a million!

BVM has the best service; Harley found a couple of the couplers for me and will ship them to me at no cost!

Thanks again Harley.
You will have to come to Prague and collect a couple of cold ones from me.

Cheers, Vasek

George,
BVM will ship the parts tomorrow (2-26-2010).
Keep you eyes open for them...
Sorry, but I forgot to include the setscrews for them, but that should not be a problem. We have always used socket head cap screws, thread size 4-40 National Coarse.

Best regards,

Mike,
If George can't find the correct screws, he can drill them out with a 2.5 MM drill then tap them 3.0 MM.
I'm sure he can figure it out.

You're a good man Harley!

No prob for the screws, I can get 4-40 screws from TowerH the next time I place an order with them. These little screws from EZ connector look just the right lenth to me:

George,
Those are correct...4-40 x 1/4" long.
Tower Hobbies also sells the screws in bags of 4 pcs (Du-Bro).
Tower part number is LXE082..price $1.05 for a bag of four pieces.
