Default 700xf g3 505kv motor shaft bent after 5 flights?
Hi guys, I bought a new 700xf form Helidirect to use in my Mostro build. The other day I noticed that the motor shaft is bent, and it surely wasn't when I put the motor in.

Another guy on the mostro had the same thing happen, but he thought maybe he tightened the motor belt too much. Because of this, I made sure not to overtighten the belt. My shaft still bent, though.

I was thinking that maybe 6mm was too small for this heli, but plenty of other guys are using 6mm shafts in scorpion, and pyro motors with no issue.

So my question is, can I upgrade to 8mm without having to purchase another motor? I really don't want to put a new motor with a 6mm shaft in just to have it bend in 5 flights again.

Thanks guys.

The 8mm shaft is plug and play, bearings are 8mm ID so good to go!
