What ever happened to it?
MA was going to bring it on the market soon.
After just having recently done engine upgrades to all three of my X-Cell, I concur that it is the top collet that pulls the alignment off-line.
I am ready to purchase 3 of them.

Call minair tommorow and find out. 352-383-3201. OR maybe ill call jeff tommorow and ask him whats goin on down there for you.

DavidH · 12-05-2006, 08:51 AM

Alfred,
I believe it is one of the less priority projects till the Razor is released and on the market. Tim says he still plans to make them.
Would be a little expensive and difficult for you to call MA in Sorrento Florida USA since you live in Australia.

David

Alfred · 12-05-2006, 09:02 AM

Thanks Chris and David
Yes, it would be a bit expensive to call from here

That's fine
I just wanted to find out if the idea had been dropped.
All my engines are installed and running, but I would like to get them when they come on to the market.
So that next time, they would be at hand.

ChrisLaFollette · 12-05-2006, 02:06 PM

Called Jeff and david was right. Razor first but the collets are still on the way.

I never would have posted it if I didn't know it to be a fact. Sorry you had to waste a phone call.

David

ChrisLaFollette · 12-06-2006, 06:27 PM

Wasnt a waste of a phone call, I called to speak with jeff about a few other things and just confirmed what you said, then earl walked in and I talked with him for a bit....

Are the "Brass/Collet Fan Nuts" out yet? I just dialed in my fan and it was such a pain.

DavidH · 02-24-2007, 12:46 PM

No the collet/nut for the fan is not out.
But stay tuned for an interesting development.

David... You can't float things like this out without more detail

DavidH · 02-28-2007, 08:14 PM

Come to Bham and you can most likely get the information directly from Tim <G>.

David

mace · 03-01-2007, 02:11 PM

What do you guys think it could be ? :?

I love suprises

wattybotts · 03-01-2007, 03:54 PM

It's pretty cool. I am trying one out now, and it takes all of two minutes to install the fan onto the motor once it has been balanced. Oh yeah, it dials to .0005 every time

Hopefully this design will carry forward and MA will be selling it as soon as possible.

misio · 03-01-2007, 05:37 PM

.0005 every time - wow that is a good news.

"WAW" can i have a photo so i can send it to microsoft "WOW" vista

wattybotts · 03-01-2007, 07:28 PM

No photos as of now, havent gotten a chance to snap a pic.- still working on some design changes too. IF any of you are going to Phoenix, AZ or B-Ham Al in the next few weeks, I will be flying it on my model.

Well G, what good is that gonna do me?

Alfred · 03-02-2007, 05:25 PM

And how is anybody going to see it, if it is installed?
You might be telling stories :wink:
3 months to bring out a set of collets? Come on guys, you can do better then that.
This is quite an important item as their are a lot of pilots out there with slightly high vibs, spatially on the Stratuses.

Alfred · 03-16-2007, 06:09 AM

kthane · 03-21-2007, 11:52 PM
