Swift 550 tail assembly

[CopterXray]

Does anyone know if you can use other manufacturers tail parts with the 550? Tail Pitch slider, grips, etc?

thanks,

Here is the tail rotor I have put on many of my helis from the Swift to big 90 nitros:

And here is my favorite pitch slider that I have also used on many different helis.

Is the CN2282 pitch slider a direct replacement for the CN537 on the Swift Nx?

Thanks for the help!

Almost, but you will have to install one of the CNE552 - M3x5x3.5 spacers between the CNE538 tail pitch lever at its attachment point on the tail gearbox, because the ball on the CN2282 sits further away from the center of the tail rotor shaft.

If you do not add the spacer you will get binding in the control system.
