| Even after doing all of the sticky collective fixes, I wasn't satisfied that things were really OK. I found that when I tighten the screws that attach the rotor head frame (A) 005 to the rotor head frame (B) 033, the bearings were squeezing the rotor head 034. This caused a slight binding.
I found some washers that would fit over the screw bosses on the rotor head frame (A) 005, thus making the head frame assembly a bit wider. This simple change completely eliminated the binding. Now the collective control on my Blade is much smoother when small inputs are made. Before it was hard to make it gently lift off or set down. |
