Yeah! just take one from an old assembly,and install a new bushing you should be set ! The bearings can be replaced if you have to ! You just need a MR52zz bearing,just make sure it's flanged,you can search by FMR52zz also.

Great! I'll get setup like this with some spare bearings and bushings.

I'm sure it will wear . But it buys more time . Ill try a little grease there to help it .

I got a bushing pressed on one of the slider pins with 2 more to fix. That particular one had worn bad on one side and had to be filed back round before I put the bushing on. I glued mine on for a little extra insurance.

I've found another cool trick for the shaft bushing on these Tarot Dual arm control units.
Before I use a new Tarot Dual tail arm and get any oil on it. I take a tooth pic and apply red loctite around the bushing to loctite the grip control arm to the bushing and let it set up thoroughly. A little play always develops there after about two weeks and this helps to keep it good and tight. If the control arm rocks on the bushing at all it translates to blade slop.

I've had pretty good luck with the Tarot dual arm control for the tail.
They do wear out and develop slop in 2 or 3 months and I just found another trick to tighten it back up.

Clean all the oil off it if you oil your bird and stick a piece of 3/16 shrink tube over the round pin that sticks strait up into the fork from the slider. Coat the pin with glue and shrink it down, let the glue dry and off you go.

I flew ten packs today after this patch work and the tail was back locked in like it was on rails. And a quick fix it is too. I'm gonna try the gogo-rc dual tail one day, the one like Guai's X3 but I bought up a bunch of these Tarot Dual tail controls and with a few tricks have made them last way past what they would have lasted.
Again loc-titing the bushing to the control arm makes that stay tight much longer and can be cleaned and re done as well if it wears out.
