I guess I could check my manual as it may be in there, but at the moment, I am closer to the computer : ) --I was thinking of ordering some Quick UK ones, but the come in 28mm and 35mm. Anyone know which ones would be appropriate for the Vibe 50?

I believe the right distance is 27mm. So I guess the 28 would be the best choice.

Good guess, but I just found some details and it seems the 28 does not have the holes in the right spot for the 27mm requirement. Thanks for the help. I figure at 14mm from each side should be close enough to 27mm (28mm)

35mm : A total of 24 holes at 11, 12.5, 14 & 15.5mm from centre allowing various offsets and spacings.

28mm: A total of 24 holes at 7.5, 9, 10.5 & 12mm from centre allowing various offsets and spacings.

27mm

If you happen to use futaba servos, the 6 point servo arm has the outer holes precisely at 27mm. On the 4 point start horn, its the second hole counting from outwards. I also have futaba drill gauges that have a 13.5mm setting (x2 = 27mm)

I would rather keep geometry right than bling metal horns

I use the 35mm Quick UK push/pull wheels on both of my Vibe 50's and they work just fine. All the ball link holes are threaded so you don't have to use small nuts on the back.

Look at the photos of my Vibe 50 in my gallery

Thanks Everyone. Damm Gary that Air Skipper 90 is Beautiful!! --Awesome.

Sounds like I would be fine at 28mm. Although I am one to believe in not changing spec too much as mention, but I think the difference is not mission critical.
