OK, thanks. Got it.

OK, thanks. That seems to be the norm. MSH really needs to stop advertising SAB blades when they are shipping MSH blades.

This might help you decide if you want the low hub or not.

Both look sexy IMHO.

Thanks for the comparative pics, I find the low hub much better looking, it just looks wrong with a hole in the middle for me.
I'l definitely be buying a low hub, plus its only 20€.

My Logo 400/500 plastic tail case is the same way.

Been busy at work so late to the party. First, congratulations.

Second, yea, be careful with plastic tail case screws. I personally have had no issue with two finger tightness and a bit more on my fleet of two minis and B450 even, but on the protos (500) it caused excessive vibes and drove my v-bar crazy. I believe the potential for binding and vibes is there but ymmv.

OK, thanks. I will watch for that.
