Hey to all,I just received my new V3 t/r hub from Jeff at CNC.It is much more robust than the original unit I purchased in January this year.The hub on the left is the original V2 version.Very small and weak standoffs for the bearings to slide onto.I actually bent
them when removing the blades grips! as you can see the fastners for the original ones look tiny compared to the 2mm bolts the new unit uses.If you have purchased the old version,Email Jeff at CNC and he will promptly mail you out the new version at
no charge! It comes with the new steel hub,4 new bearings,2 new bolts and 2 washers.I just installed it tonight and as soon as I get a chance to fly it I'll post a feedback.Let's see how this one holds up,Jeff has assured me this is rated for 3D
flying.

Cool thanks for the info, I'll have to contact Jeff as I purchased the CNC T/R hub back around Feb and it's still in the package as I didn't want to use it and have the heli crash due to it failing
