After flying my EB yesterday I was going over the heli checking for lose bolts, etc. I noticed that the clutch bell has some play in it. If I put my fingers on either side of the clutch bell, I can wiggle it 1/8th of an inch in any direction. Same thing if I put one finger on top of the clutch shaft that rides through the bearing block, and wiggle.
I didn't notice anything strange during flight. No weird sounds or anything.
Should that clutch have a solid feel to it, or is there supposed to be some play there? What would be the cause of that play if not?
