How often should those rubber o-rings be changed in the rotor head? I know they can wear out!

Supposedly, softened-up O-rings will dampen and weaken cyclic response. I should change mine out and see what happens.

In order for a feathering spindle o-ring to soften, I would expect that it would have to come in in contact with some sort of solvent or lubricant; otherwise, I would expect the o-ring to dry out and harden. Maybe you can let us know your findings including age of the o-rings and whether you lube your mSR? |
