I can't find 16grams 4mm Mikado Part #2357 anywhere in the US. And only 2 places have them outside the US :arggg:

The manual shows that part #961 Ball Bolt are for the Logo 6003D and the manual shows a small line pointing to the tubes as well. Not so!! These are the Ball Bolts ONLY and they don't even fit this heli. They are for the Logo 20. This needs to addressed by Mikado ASAP!! I'm going to buy 5/32" Tubing and make me the tubes I need. Mikado needs to sell these separate from the Ball Bolts imho.

2359 is same paddle, only the hole is 3.5mm not 4.0mm. If you have a drill bit you can carefully drill it out a tad more to accept the 4mm flybar or simply vise the flybar short up and work the paddle on, I did this before on my Logo 14. Anyhow you can contact AM and they might be able to find you one or a pair. On the other note the tube you are worried about so you know does add some re enforcement but more than anything is a spacer. You can get by without them, just set your links out that measurement equally on both sides.

Try this part - MIK3098. The description says "4mm ball bolt set" but you'll probably need to verify this. It looks like the 500 3D has more available parts at this time but I sure hope mine does not crash in a long time.

EDIT: Are you saying you don't need the ball bolt? Your only looking for the spacer?
