Please make sure to use red locktite on the four bolts that hold the yoke to the center hub (2 for bearings and 2 for dampners). If your kit came with these parts factory assembled, take the screws out and put red locktite onto the threads of the CENTER HUB. Putting the locktite on the screws and insert them into the center hub and bearing collar may only smear the locktite and not put it where it needs to be.
Removal is still easy to do and if need be a little heat from a soldering gun will aid in removal.
This also applies to standard Freyas as well. On these helis a little warmth to the bolt will be better for removal of the button head style bolts as opposed to the harder standard cap screws.
If you have any questions, let me know.
Thanks

Jeff!!Red loctite, that will be a bear to get out if needed, I've tried the soldering gun tip b4 with red loctite, and end up stripping the hex in the bolt, then your screwed. I used blue when originally built, and have never had a problem. I check regularly though!!! Daz...
You just said the other idea, check regulary. However, this little point gets missed, not intentionally though.
All it take is once.
It is just a suggestion that we are using.

With good drivers and a steady, calm hand, you can get those bolts out with red locktite with no heat at all. And by "good drivers," I mean nice hardened steel or titanium ones. Those black allen key sets stink, they strip many screws.

Thanks for the info Jeff, I will pay close attention to those!!!
Mark, or whoever knows?When you click on the above steps 8,9,10. It shows a split shaft collar from SGP Performance, part# SGH0009, Question is: Where did you get that? Thanks, Daz...
