sonic V2 thrusted tail grips

[kahn10]

just fitted up some of em.big fat hub that goes thru the radial bearing(i think 2 skinny ones didn't prise them apart) with the thrust at the end of the hub on a shouldered 2.5mm capbolt.haven't flown her yet but spun them up with out mains and so far this is the smoothest running most slop free thrusted tail set up i've seen on a hurry....heres some crappy pics.oh yeah....the grips suspiciously resemble their very first attempt aka the tail grenade but with the sides polished.however with the new hub and thrust bearing set up they so far seem excellent.....

ooh nice. when you say new hub, do you mean that they increased the thickness? what does that do? make the tail more robust?

yep... the original hub didn't go through the radial bearings and would break while spinning... throwing the blade and grips... very dangerous...sonic listened and fixed the problem
