You may want to upgrade to bearings instead of bushings. That helps. Also get rid of the Z bends and use ball links. In the end though you're better off just flying the Nexus as is since if you do decide to 'tighten' up what you can your're not going to notice it very much and the machine will still fly the same.

The Nexus is a good training heli. Yes, it has inherent slop problems but those don't affect the way it was designed to fly. If you want a precision machine you need an X-Cell, Hirobo or similar.

Buy some fuel with the money you'd save on upgrades then fly, fly, fly. Wear the thing out then move up.

Get the SXR arms H3118 for $16 and the bearings from Boca Bearing 3mm-6mm-2mm cost $4 each free shipping Tower wants $22 It takes all the slop out of the mixing arms and the hover is much smoother

I think you right
I'm putting the final assemblies on my ergo 60 that's going to be my main ship from now on anyway.
I will leave my nexus as is.
I don't think it ever effected the performance but I never liked the
slop in the rotor head.

Thanks for all the advice.

Those guys are right. You need to upgrade. And yes , the slop is never good. It wacks it out of phase slightly and thats a problem.

upgrades

I have upgraded to the metal arms and the difference is remarkable. You won't regret it.
