Where can i get just the ball link without the arm. both mine broke in a crash. Is there something better than the stock ones. All rebuilt and i didn't notice this upon disassembly.

Sorry for the post guys found them at Helidirect. Only part I'm missing to get airborn again. Grrr

they tend to break in a crash to get extras. sometimes it is the only thing that breaks.

If you got a set of A links from the flybar head or tail, those will work. Just a pain in the neck to get them started since the hole is slightly smaller but it works.

Thanks for the info guys. Foofer that's exactly what I did. Ordered 3 sets of them. Trying to build up my parts bin for the inevitable.

I have broken the rods. I thought I would need new dfc arms but the things are a pretty loose thread.

Speaking of those DFC arms foofer are they suppose to move around side to side at the top? The ones on my 700 have no play in them but these on the 250 move side to side a little bit. Can't tighten down the bolt anymore or it'll snap. Didn't seem to affect its flying characteristics.

Mine move like that too, so it's probably normal. The bolt needs a few more threads. Like yours, it hasn't affected flight performance.

Good Deal. Thanks again.
