Hi guys,
Yesterday my Spectra-G start spinning very fast when hovering at 50 feet high. I manage to "land" it but it wasn't smooth. The AR switch saved 98% of the heli.
Few parts need replacement: head axle, struts (landing gear), one ladder support is a little bent and one blade hit the tail boom (blade ok but the boom is "almost" ok).
The cause is very clear: the tail push rod jump-out from the ball link!!
I was just hovering at the time this happened, not 3d.
The plastic link is coming off the ball almost effortless! Today I changed almost every ball screws with chromed balls and secure the links with washers.
