Tail rotor dampners - how long do they last ?

[rcmarty]

When is a good time to change ?

My 800 has about 80 flights on it , my 700 is at about 30 and seems to be a bit tighter.

There are 2 versions.
First was too soft.
New Version much harder.
They Last forever... ;-)

My 800 was part of the second batch to north america.
Had the ver 25 YGE esc

700 is newer of course

I bought a set of spares , part # 4570

would these be the newer type ?

Kyle hasn't changed a set since before the 3D Masters (July 2012), and used the same helis @ the XFC last weekend that he used at the 3DM, with a zillion flights on them. They last a long time.

Sounds like another quality part. Who would have guessed? Um anyone that owns a Mikado

Thanks for the reply's.

Good to know kyle hasn't spit a set out yet. If he can't kill them i'll be good for a long time yet.


Good quality machines for sure.

I've noticed the forums for the 700-800 are a bit in the dead side , no issues poping up , just the odd post about setups and such. It's a good thing though

Gives me a chance to browse the vbar forums , going to try to figure out the tuning details.
