I just finished a post-flight inspection and noticed that the mixer arm ball screws had backed out. I have 40+ flights on my 500 and otherwise things have been flawless. I didn't use CA when I installed them - I guess this is a must. Anyone else have similiar problems?

No, but as in any model when threading into plastic it certainly is a very good idea to dab a super small amount of ca in there.

I rarely use CA in plastic, I try to go over my helis once a month

The same thing happened on mine. I did use CA on the build, but maybe not enough. Now fixed with ample CA and no problems in 50+ flights.

Thanks zguy, I will use CA this time around. Glad to hear I am not the only one.
