First repair

[otto975d]

Well the Heli is back together Thanks to Helimix:noteworthy and Sokal:noteworthy
Spun it up in the garage and it seems to be fine.

Will find out when I fly tomorrow

The only thing that worries me is the feathering shaft.... don't know if I have the head dampening shims in the right place ( I hope that's what they
are called) I put the with # 27

Yep, that is them. Vid will be ready by tomorrow for sure. Uploading it now. Had to do a little flying in Phoenix tonight before I started eating up all my bandwidth. ;)

But I think you're good Ooto. If not, it will come apart again. Even easier now that you know what you;re doing. :YeaBaby:
