Larry just ordered some gears for the first production run so I'm sure it won't be long. Some of the guys are getting theirs as we speak.
Actually I didn't want the HD one on my 90 because of the added tail weight (2+oz. if I recall). I already removed my horizontal fin to get the CG just so. This gearbox is less than an oz. heavier than the previous one with the addition of larger gears, 6mm input and output shafts, extended travel and the HD tail hub.
This was just one of numerous tweeks and improvements that get looked at on a constant basis around the Bergen shop. I was just happy to get the chance to take part.
It survived everything I could think to put it through. I even tried to channel a little H to the C (as was put so eliquently elsewhere) and put it through some stuff I couldn't think of. It came out laughing at my efforts with a few unexpected bennies to boot.
All in all, I think it'll make a nice addition to an already great helicopter line.
On my happy, but a bit tired and slightly frightened, 90. LOL
Actually Shawn, It would have been a slightly nicked tailboom.
