airplane version actro coupling watch

[misskimo]

hey , Im in the process of changing out a logo 20 10t in my Fury conversion which is alittle short , gear coverage is about 85% on the main gear , well I got Chris's 10t fury gear and during the tear down , I noticed the motor shaft coupling was loose and is wollered out , setscrew was still tight too , so , every now in then if you have this motor on there check the setscrew , and check it for wear , maybe the 2 crashes I had last year did this , dont know , but just a little something to keep a eye on

hey , well in the past I had no problem ordering this part , but once I ordered the coupling from Fitz and they sent out a coupling with the 5mm shaft made into it cant use that in a Ion , so I know a friend that I got one from and he sent the same one , dont need it , cant use it , its made for the joker setup , so does anyone have one of these laying around , this is whats keeping me from testing the Ion , its the motor 5mm hole adaptor with setscrew .

Thanks Tony

Hi Tony,

I tried a 32-3 aero version and Chris told me to ream out the adapter with a 6mm ream in a lathe, I did this with no problem. If you can’t get a ream send them to me and I will ream them for you.

You where looking for a 32-3 (plank version) before and I could not decide to part with it, I have one NIB I will let go with the Min Air stuff to make it work for the price of the motor, $299 plus shipping.

hey , thanks but I bought a used one until mine gets back from Koher , I have a lathe and reamed it out and put a tail brass slider in there and it wobbles a tad , so I will wait till I get a new one .
