How is the bearing on the TT supposed to be attatched? It shows green lock tight. What am i supposed to lock tight, the bearing itself?

It shows to use green locktite but I used Poly Zap CA instead. It had too much clearance for me to trust green there. Green is too thin. The CA will fill the gap. I always put a tad of ca in front of the bearing and behind it on the TT so it will not move any further in case it does break loose.
thank you, i was wondering if i could use CA, i have never heard of using lock tight. Thank you

I did a tail assembly teardown for inspection now that I have some time on the Heli. I used CA also and the bearing is still holding in place, so in my opinion it is an excellent method for holding the bearing in place. CA debonder will release it if you ever need to replace it.
