Swashplate bearing size

[tungym]

Any idea of the exact size of the swashplate bearing. Thanks!

if we have the new one is it possible to change the bearing? it has those notches piched in the rim at the underside- how would it come apart? just curious if it is even possible. Mine has more play than I like to see also

Mine is the oldest guinea pig version. Just took a look at my local hobby shop and the new version looks darker in the center. Almost no free play at all in the central ball and at the swashplate bearing.

Mine is badly worn after >250 flights. I have taken the bearing off previous after a serious inverted crash. Now I want to make sure the size and see if I can get a new bearing before disassemble it.

Mine looks like this . The center is light grey , instead of black.

I see-it doesn't have the notches under the bottom. Mine is black in the center-new version. Guess I am screwed as far as replacing the bearing goes.

Your motor wires could do with some shrink-wrap or other isolation as well.... :shock:

Thanks. The abrasion resulted from my previous Trex600 crash. Too lazy to deal with it now. :mrgreen:

It is xx hot in the afternoon that my 600L motor is burning hot (100 degC stator temperature) !
