Default Swash Plate info

Just wanted to make a quick post and let fellow HB flyers know about this issue.
I was having trouble where everytime I flew, I would end up crashing, and the aftermath was a separated swashplate. I thought the swashplate was separating on impact, and just kept pressing it back in together. After quite a few crashes I realized the swash separating was causing the crashes. So, I put on a brand new plate. And what do you know the same thing started to happen. I finally put a little, a little, CA on the bearing that the upper swash presses into, so that it would not work itself loose. You need to be careful not to glue the bearings together. Since then I have been flying 100% better. Not sure if this is a major issue with the swashplates, but I have three of them and they all were doing the same thing.

Hopefully this is useful to some of you, the swahplates seem to "fall apart" very easily.
