700N Metal Tail Torque Tube Unit Availability?

[tooter]

Has anybody seen an online site with a 700N Metal Tail Torque Tube Unit (HN7053) available? Due to a slight mishap on my part, I have bent the holder that the tail pitch control screws into, and I am trying to find a place that has one available? Any one seen one in stock?

I could be wrong, but I believe that the 600N unit might be temporarily made to work. It won't have the anti-rotation "keying" feature of the 700N part but I think that the boom diameter and the torque-tube socket are the same. I know that the 700 uses the same grips.

A completely uneducated, "I could be wrong" response. Hopefully the experts will chime in and clarify.

Unfortunately it is shorter than the 700 one.

Bent mine in a crash! So I know what you're going through. I think align needs to make this part available separately.

Last word that I got was they should be available in about 7-10 days. At least that's what Ed from GrandRC told me..... I agree. Align needs to make the bellcrank arm available as a separate part.
