Nipped out tonight and loosened all the front radius arm bolts, luckily they all came loose but had borrowed my dad's long breaker bar which I'm sure helped, :-)

Now nice and loose for replacing the standard arms for 3" castor corrected ones, :-)

Will find out tomorrow. Just been to Homebase to get some 12mm dowel rod :woohoo:


Well I did not quite work. I got the dowelling in and the spacers fitted, and the guard slide one and lined up a treat.

But when I started to knock the bolt through and the dowel out, the stress on the radius arm caused the hole to come out of line. I think its where both the bolt and dowel were partially in, so not a single solid piece throughout holding it all together.

But I did manage to get one guard lined up pretty quickly after that, but I still can't get the bolt all the way through. I have bought a ratchet strap from 'Frauds so I can bring it all in line tomorrow with that and get these fitted.


Atleast your getting there buddy, brute force a flat screw driver and alot of f ing and blinding done it for me ;)

Great little thing has taken some bashing... thanks Russ and also thanks for sorting out all my Christmas shopping in one visit :)


You might like this then. Not co-axial and it is fixed pitch but for indoor flying in the house it is unbeatable.
