Thanks for that info.. I tried to get the flybar off but the 2 small Phillips head screws are stuck.. and I am afraid to put too much force on them. If I heat the screws with a soldering gun ,, maybe they will break loose and I can further check out the head.

You have to be careful with the screw heads. If you round them out, you're in the crap. I bought a set of Phillip's head screw drivers at Radio Shack that were specifically for Japanese style heads.

Once you get the head off...leave it off. Take a small/short piece of CF (2mm), slide it through where the screws would go. Hold the CF in place with gas tubing. This will take the pressure off the flybar.

This mod started using a toothpick then went to CF round stock. I forget what they called this mod but, it works great toning down the TB effect.

If you need a pic, let me know.

Yep, I forgot about that. One advantage is that instead of a U-shaped cap being in contact with the center pivot, the CF rod only gives you line contact.

Chap, you said you needed a 4 in 1 unit. Have you thought about using a 3 in 1 with a spektrum receiver, or wouldn't that work?

Randy, how are you doing/feeling Sir? It's been a while. I hope you are doing much better. Yeah, I think I might have a 3in1 w/RX. IDK, did Esky also put out a 3in1 w/RX as a separate unit? It just might be for Spectrum and I have the DX9. I'll have to check that out Bud. I never thought of that

Wishing you a Happy New Year to you and yours.

Hey, Mikey, I'm looking at a 4-in-1 and two Aero-Nutz motors, with heat sink, all still mounted on a stock frame! I didn't hear you needed one. Remember, I went brushless on mine. Interested?
