204720 Thrust Bearing Tail Rotor System Gaui Hurricane 550

[Timmey]

Does anybody know more about this new part? Has GAUI updated the grips for flying with more Headspeed without tail kicks?

[oppie]

Timmey,
When I ordered the tail upgrade from John at Ready- Heli got an Align 600 tail grip assembly. If you read my thread about problems with my upgrades I'm still having problems with tail wag.

Now I have the GAUI Tail Grips here. What the advantage of these Thrust Bearings? Now I have much more tolerance in the grips. Iam really angry to fly with it. No one can help me? :-(
Bob where are you?

Timmey:
What do you mean by more tolerance? maybe i can help you.
thrusted bearing keep's your tail from locking out at high head speed
i use the t-rex thrusted tail and have no problem at all.

Thrusted setups will have a bit more paly under static (bench) conditions. When they spool up, the grips move out agasint the thrust bearing and everything is fine. You have to have that play for the thrust bearing to work.
