Should I worry about not having OWB 20T?

[arne997]

I have the uppdated one-way bearing shaft L43.
I suppose it has the 19T gear?
No problems, but should I still change to the 20T?
I you read in the forum alot of people have big problems and you dont want to crash just due to this!

Thanks

In my opinion every Hurri owner needs to get the 20T OWB -- the 19T is just too unreliable. It's not a question of if it will fail on you but when.

My 19T OWB gave up after ~70 flights... nothing really exciting. Just bring your machine down with an auto rotation and exchange that part. I also installed a 20T... if you wanna be on the safe side exchange it. But I wouldn't really care too much about that.

When your 19T gave up, was it with the newer updated version? (the one with 8mm shaft)
Or is it only the old 19T that is giving up?

Thanks

What is the difference between the 19T and the 20T other than 1 touth more?
I the quality better?

Thanks

More material... 19T covers only a part of the OWB, 20T goes over the full lenght. I heard that this "more" gives more stability. The 20T should live longer when doing lots of auto rotations... I can't confirm it by now, just had 10 flight. I can only say that I would trust the 20T compared to a 19T...
Have a look at:

And you'll get more head speed...
