Hi Everyone, What tool are you using to remove the C-Clips on your spindles on Tempests and right now for me an Extreme? If you can find whatever tool you use at MSC please post a link and I'll have it tomorrow. :)
Thanks in advance for your help!!

This is what I use Will. There's a larger one but this handles most jobs on a heli.

I use snap ring pliers made by Milbar, the part number on them is 1209R. I got them from a NAPA distributor. They are internal on one side and external on the other. They work great, they was $20.
I have seen nearly the same ones at Harbor Freight for around $6. These I have will handle all the snap rings on the heli really nice.
Here is an assortment from Harbor Freight. For $22 , they should handle all things you need them for on a heli.
