Hi Dino,
Thanks for your feedback and follow up thus far. I see that Align now has the new tail parts listed on their website. Just curious, any idea when you think they may be available? Thanks,
Dom

Yes, I have tried before. I believe you have to be a distributor to order directly.

That cheap shaft makes a new heli costing 1300USD or more falls like a falling star, what makes it worthy?

This is now too much in rc industry. If you send me only a new shaft for free, what will i do with it if the whole heli is in pieces? Align is a big company, it shouldnt run stuffs like a joke and make customers into losses.

Most of RC stuffs are over priced much way high just becouse becouse this hobby is a leasure thing to do. This doesnt mean that companies should take advantage and take money from customers by producing non tested faulty parts.

Toooo much confidence is the issue and i believe this design was never tested properly.

Saeed.

Look on the bright side, At least a fix appears to be in the works, and will be available soon. Easy for me to say since I've suffered no crashes, I know. But I'll be happy to spend a few more bucks to avoid a rebuild. If this is all it takes to get the dfc to be reliable, then we're doing good. Fingers crossed.

I've been running my 700N G3 all summer without any issues, but I'm definatley getting some of these new gears as a precaution. Love my 700!! I'll always have one in the mix. I too have replaced my tail blade grip washers a couple of times,"well before any info was posted", due to cupping. Its just been a normal maintenance thing for me. I will definatley be getting some of the Lynx bolts now!
