Miniature Aircraft Nitro/Gas Helicopters > Fury Main Blade Grip safety washer

I was just wondering if I can use a smaller width safety washer on the spindle. The problem is that I just my new V-blades (14mm root/4mm bolt/700mm) came in and one of them rubs the head of the spindle bolt that holds the grip on. I checked and triple checked the head to make sure it was assembled right. Finally, we put a bolt through both blades and found out that one blade is longer by about 1.75mm from the bolt hole to the spindle bolt (just enough to scrape). Should I send the blades back to Vic or should I just use a smaller safety washer and be done with it??

Thanks,
Alex

David,
The safety washer that I added was the one in the instruction manual. It is part #0327 as listed on the fury plans on Ron Lund's site. The spindle bolt goes through it first before going into the thrust bearing assembly. It doesn't look like it is absolutely necessary but that's why I wanted the opinion of X-cell experts.

Thanks,
Alex

Safety Washer

M.A. must have changed the bolt. I'm building my Fury now and my spindle bolts did not have a flange on them. Instead the kit has you use a safety washer part #0327. My kit was made in January so alex according to my kit and instructions is correct about the spindle bolts and safety washers. Must be an update.

Just a little update. I e-mailed Vic about the blades and he replied on a Sunday. Now that's customer service. I sent the blades back and he is going to take care of them for me.
