Where is the 500 Nitro build video?

[nuke]

I am wanting to pin my tail boom, as many have suggested if doing piro's. Well, some said it was in the 500 nitro section, but all I can find is some 500 nitro fun fly video. Maybe I just haven't got enough sleep, or maybe I'm a ruh-tard, but can someone point me to the video? Thanks...

Thanks. Okay, I don't feel too bad, it's not in the 500 section. It's in Finless Bob's Tech Room. Preciate it.

Why would the tail case slide on the tube? Is that what the problem is?

[Larry227]

The issue is the boom sliding out of the boom block at the heli since there's no belt to help hold it in place. Unless you leave the boom block bolts loose it's only an issue during fast piros and that's only in some cases. Only takes a couple minuutes to pin the boom so there's no reason not to do it and be sure it's not coming out.

Thanks for clarifying that Larry

Last noob question. I watched the video, and he uses a 6 mm long self tapping screw. Okay, he also says something about ca'ing it. So, do you go ahead and screw the screw in, then apply some ca around the head, or are you supposed to apply some first, then screw it in. I don't have a lot of ca experience, but I do know when I had to glue my bearing to my TT, it dried fast as hell.

Just put a drop of CA on the threads before putting the screw in
