Part number and availability of new flybar carrier lock

[RB]

Does anyone have any information on the flybar lock for the new fly bar carrier, availability or part number?

#126-105 Stratus Flybar Carrier (fits 0844 Extreme head) - Retail $49.95
#126-106 Tempest Flybar Carrier (fits Tempest 3D head) - Retail $49.95


Rays Heli Resources that advertises here on Helifreak should have it. I would think Ricks RC would have it also.
They have been available for a few weeks now.
If Rays or Ricks doesn't have them. You can also order direct from MA.

Haven't heard anything on the flybar lock. You can use one of those Generic flybar locks that go around the boom though...

Sorry,
I misread the original post. I was providing information on the carrier only.
I thought it said flybar lock or flybar carrier?

I was told yesterday by MinAir that they are working on it this week. Hope to have them next week sometime. I have mine ordered.

Alan (Hammer) modded my Extreme lock by grinding a little material out and making the grove a little bigger that go over the carrier and it works fine for now until the MA ones ship.

I did the same when the Tempest head first came out. I just modified the flybar lock that was for the 0844 metal head block. The flybar lock does not have to be precise, just need it to hold the flybar in place .

I understand that but sense I build for other people I hate to modify mine.
