Phase ring pin length

[Dennis]

I was doing a close inspection of my JR Venture 50 and noticed at 100%
throttle one of the pins on the phase ring pushes on the swashplate causeing
the plate to pitch .
In otherwords at full collective the swashplate is no longer level. One pin
measures 21mm and the other 20mm.
Are they different lengths for a reason or is it just a manufacturing fault?
Any help appreciated

It could be that the "longer" pin isn't sitting on it's hole as far as it
could. Maybe a slight "tap" will drop it in further.

You COULD always limit the swashplate travel by 1mm too.

I ended up loosening the pins retaining screw and pushing it 1mm further
into the phase ring.I dont think the length is critical and they are just
guides,besides its gunna be a long time before I should be using full
throttle anyway....lol
thanks
