Compass Knight 50 > Kasama Tail won't work with Stock Tail Shaft!!

The need to flip the grips & reversing the servo & gyro wasn't a problem. Nor is Sport flying. But when you start fly'n harder the Tail wasn't holding well at All!
Turns out there wasn't enough throw to allow the gyro to hold durring some manouvers.
The Fix:
I ordered an 85mm tail shaft like I had to use on my Gasser. Had to notch the shaft for the grub screws but now the tail is Rock Solid again all the time!
No the Tail is not nessasary, but I like the tail rotor to be metal.

The link to the metal shafts I bought that fit perfectly in the bearings:

I think Compass Charges Way too Much for their Bling, & only wanted Grips. Nothing wrong with their Stock Tail Case!

You can use the hub assy, not the whole box.
