Pinion spacer washer, how to get one??
Hi, is there a way to get just the 3.1x4.5x0.2mm washer that goes on the motor shaft between the pinion and upper bearing?

I found that the tail pitch washers for a trex 600 are okay for it. they are .004" thicker but they seem to go right in and don't bind. MSH should really offer these or put two with every pinion as they are easily lost.

Unfortunately, with MSH even prayer doesn't work. I have accumulated a couple of spares saving roughly similar sized washers that came with other parts. Similar problem with screws ... I have snapped the Jesus bolt in the main pulley from rough landings a few times. Until I got hold of a supply of M2x14 Compass screws from AMain, I had to buy a pulley set from our local Protos supplier in Melbourne, Oz, just to get the screw for it ... and of course the pulley itself is indestructible.

FWIW I don't run a washer at all above the pinion.
Parts are getting hard to find! I use some "world hobbies" phillips screw for the main gear. love that shear point...rarely replace those main gears! Unfortunately those bolts hare not supplied by MSH!!

I love protos helis but sadly I will no longer buy or fly them just because of this reason and nobody wants to pay a decent price for a used one even if it is like new. Not in vogue I guess.

bolts are available here
http://www.msh-direct.com/products/m...-msh41124.html Never had a problem getting any parts for my Protos. Usually the washer that you are looking for gets stuck to motor magnet
