I need these bearings but I guess Outrage doesn't sell them?

[Slyster]

I have plenty of tail CNC parts.. I collect spare parts as a hobby.... BUT.. I now have zero of these bearings and need two!... and it looks like the only way to get them is to buy more tail parts??? The last thing I need is more tail parts.. I have like 3 full units... (none with that bearing though)

That should last you a while

[Slyster]

Holy smokes thanks Andyzboy! I'll order some tonight. Man your brain processing speed it fast :YeaBaby:

[Andyzboy]

Oh wait, are those bearings special for some reason because it says washer bearing?

[DominicD]

These bearings are also used on the 450, should be able to get them at the LHS.

I think these will work, they are a bearing with a raised inner race.

[Andyzboy]

That looks more like it. I also found these

[DominicD]

Yup, they are a common part, i have several of them in my bearing box.

[Slyster]

er.. ok.. but will these work? (as in I already ordered a package)... I bet they will.. if they wont fit I'll use my sledge hammer tool....

Hard to tell, the angle doesnt show if it has the flange.

[Slyster]

even without the flange it's going to be better then the ones I am flying with now.. the flanges are gone.... notchy like your toes....

Geeze I had a bad crash that last time.. EVERY single bearing in the tail. And there are like 12. Not the helis fault of course.. bearings are bearings.. and they don't like dirt and impact...

STILL.. even adding in the bearings I am buying.. it was a sub $100 crash! Cheap!

[Andyzboy]

It will probably work if you don't tighten the screws, just use some red loctite. Sorry about linking those, I didn't think about the washer part:o

[Slyster]

No problem. I can do the red if it's an issue.. I've used that trick before. A lighter takes them off easy enough.

Like I said the flanges are gone now.. and they are uber notchy.. but I'm flying anyway. Not a lot of movement in those parts.

[backburner1955]

That bearing you have circled is NOT the flange bearing, just the raised inner race, the flange bearing goes on the other end of the arm.

[Slyster]

yeah I know.. called the "washer bearing".. I think I'll be fine. I have tons of the flanged bearings but they don't work.. I tried :)

[backburner1955]

If you need the 2x5x2.3mm flange bearings for the other end of the arm, A-Main has them in the Velocity 50 section.

The ones Capi listed here are correct.
