I was looking at that, but not sure it would fit? I dont see a set screw under it? Do you have one? How does it work?

Yeah I bought one. It doesn't come with a set screw but has a 3mm threaded hole in the bottom for one. I am planning on just cutting the head off of a 3x12mm socket head bolt and using that. I figure I can put some loctite on each end, thread one end all the way into the sensor and then thread the sensor into the top of the rotor head.

Dubro 3mm long grub. that way you can set the screw into the head first and make sure its not oscillating incorrectly. then screw the sensor down onto it., or course, some blue loctite is a must.

Dubro 3mm long grub.

3mm long? That seems far too short to attach the sensor to the head. Only 1.5mm on each side?

Hi Guys, just a idea

Please take a 3mm bolt, length 16mm glue it in the radar dome with approx 8mm sticking out of the dome.
After drying of the glue, cut off the head of the bolt, clean up the tread and screw it in your main head.
You need about 6mm tread for in your head.

Jan,

No, a 3mm "long grub" its 10mm long. my bad grammar. but jans idea is much less mucking around buying screws so i say go that way.

this mechanics look awesome. I want!!! I can't find were to order it!

That is our mechanics. They are in the final stages of completion. They have been run up to full speed successully on tuesday they will fly in my apache for the first time. I do not expect any problems we will have them out at scale masters in ca in the next few weeks and (hopefully) have them ready for preorder. They should be ready to be under the tree for xmas.
They feature high quality kde parts and upgraded bearings and hardware
We are keeping the details off the forums untill we have the design finished.
Will post some pics post flight this week. If you have any questions feel free to pm me.

Hi Stan, Welcome to the build thread. glad to have some of your products on my apache!

Which apache have you designed these mechanics for? i would assume the indiehelis kit?
