Yes there is. I spoke with Century about a week ago and was told the new versions were being tested and should be available in a couple weeks. They are supposed to have larger screws for the clutch/fan hub area. I'm going nuts waiting for these. Been waiting at least a month for the clutch and a no windshield canopy. I wanna go fly. WAAAAAAAA!

Well if you hear ANYTHING please let me know. Everyone I know, with a Century product, sounds like they are waiting. A general announcement would be nice unless it is a "super secret" one or something. :dontknow

I've been waiting for the HD clutch for 3 months now... They had some serious quality issues (not the design, but the manufacturing). It ended up crashing people helis.
I sincerely hope that it will be available for within 2 weeks. I highly doubt it, if they are testing. If they are testing it now, I would assume that it will be at least another month.
The parts are manufactured in China. Shipping (via ocean freight) alone should take around 45 to 50 days. If they are testing it now, this tells me that they are not yet in full production.
I do hope that I am wrong about this, as I need this part badly as well. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
