Sure will! 5mm Main shaft, 120 deg CCPM

Thanks,

Not w/o mods. Swash is larger diameter so the A/R arm needs to move back on the V2 frame, aside from that front cyclic servos will need to be mounted with tabs on the outside of the frame for proper geometry. Also the main shaft length is longer, I hear that you can install the main shaft upside down to get pitch right, and phasing will be off.

Thanks Steve! Seems to me it would work though! I will look at it this weekend at the field if Alan is there!

Thanks,
Devin

I'd be interested in what you find, I want to put the pro head block on my SA, I see mostly that there are issues like phasing interactions etc with the full pro head mounted to v2 rex's

Wouldn't a V3 rotor hub, spindle, and fixed links make a V2 into a virtual Pro rotor?

Speed Stick 3D · Jul 03, 2009, 05:23 AM

The only problem with the V2 head is the sloppy blade grips! So yes, if you just put a pro head block and blade grips on it "should work"!! I will talk with Alan if he is at the field this weekend or not about this matter!

Thanks,
Devin

Ive been trying to figure out too if the pro grips will work with the V3 head block, as I dont think the V2 flybar seesaw will fit on the pro head block. They should fit, because the feathering shaft is the same length for the Pro and V3....

So the Beam swash is a direct fit for the V2 but better than Align so I hear?

Beam swash is serviceable and fits trex. So you can change ball bearing if it has too much play, what you could not do with Align swash.

Speed Stick 3D · Jul 03, 2009, 04:36 PM

I use the original V1 swash, but the new revised version that does not seperate! It has Align silk screened on the front of it and still has no play after 400 hard 3D flights!

Thanks,
Devin

So you mean the V2 swash?

http://www.align.com.tw/shop/product...oducts_id=2705

V2

Is the only difference the color? they are both hs1111, but the V2 is hs1111-84

Speed Stick 3D · Jul 03, 2009, 05:13 PM

I run the V1 color one! Light blue and says Align on it! The v2 swash is good too! same thing! But the old V1 swash that has no name on it is the one that seperates! So stay away from those!

Thanks,
Devin

I agree 10,000 percent.
