e-Align T-REX 250-450-500-600 > CRAP flybar rod parts!!!!!

Is this yet an example of poor quality checking from Align, or have I received counterfeit parts?
The two flybar rods in the bag with the larger label does not fit the bearings. The diam. of the rods are too large. Have anyone else experienced this?

i had the same prob with my XL, the flybar rod seemeed a fraction too big to fit the bearings. It did eventually push through but was tight; it scaped some of the 'back' finish off the rod! Then another set of rods slid in without any trouble - QC is the issue i think.

If you want, you can mount the flybar in a drill and turn it to size using sandpaper (600 grit to finish, 300 for rough sizing). It's a bit of a pain, but it works.

INSIDE SECRET:

You're not supposed to say "It's Crap" on here... you're supposed to make due with whatever you get, even if you have to make the part from scratch using your part as a concept pattern, then sing the praises of the heli company in the hopes that they will 'like' you and start sending you free stuff.

Just ask koko

Some where between the V2 and the XL and SE, Align changed up their flybars.

There are 2 versions out there. The older version is larger and requries a very light sanding to be inserted into the SE bearings of the flybar holder. The newer vesion should fit well, without any need for sanding.

Kill_A._Byte your wrong.

Take a look again. Both bags have partnbr. HS1006T. Why Align have the same partnbr. on rods that surely are different is beyond me.
Or, maybe they don't know that there are a diam. difference?

I was looking at the tags on the upper right of the pack.Where it says "Model No." with the actual Align model number next to it, not the bar code.
