Has your oneway Cutch ever locked up? Solution here

[reaaz]

A long time ago, I had this problem with the TT clutch locking up & quite a few other ppl had the same problem. I had posted a fix i did back in 2006 for it on rcuniverse.
Don't know if anyone still has this problem with the Raptor60/ Raptor 90 onway clutch so i'll post the sketches & directions here for anyone interested. Note, the same clutch is working perfectly up to now! Just add 4-5 drops of triflow oil ontop of the jurnal bearing a 1/2 before flying every month or so. It will wick into the bearing & keep it from ever locking up!

Note: IF your TT clutch is working fine as is, DON'T DO THIS! Only do this if yours is locking up!!


Make 2 or 3 shallow grooves on the top on the inside of the clutch bearing with a Triangular needle file...... & ALSO make two grooves below as well that are shallower then the top ones.
The reason to make a shallower groove undeneath is so that the oil that seeps through to the inside, will not seep out as fast as it came in! but you do need the grooves underneath so that the jurnal bearing will be coated in oil!
During the filing make sure you slightly angle the file so that it would not touch the rollers. You must not ever touch them. Thus start filing it in a spot between two rollers!
