i wouldn't worry about it all the guys i fly with fly the trex 450 pro which uses a 4mm feathering shafter and they say the have never bent one in all their crashes!

too bad about your crash!

thats not me in the video that is the designer and his original plane! he's amazing! he has designed a ton of amazing planes!

i still havn't got my head or tail unit yet! really frustrating it should have been here tuesday at the latest im actually just sitting down to send the ebay seller a message!

i hope your parts arrive soon as we are in the same boat waiting for parts now. i'll put up some pictures once i get it all setup!

maybe if i'm lucky they will mail another head/tail and the first ones will show up really late!

well i got my head and tail today they are both pretty much pieces of crap but i think part of my problems stem from a main gear that needs replaced asap! i dunno though its all sketchy since that last crash was pretty brutal....

gonna have a very experienced guy give me a hand tomorrow to solve my problems. hope you get back in the air easier than i am!

give that a read! i just did it to mine today only put on aluminum ball links on one side since i am still using plastic tail blade holders but it made a world of difference!

finally got it in the air and tail is holding nice need to turn down the gain a bit more probably be good around 22-23%
