Option parts, damper o-rings, main shaft etc.

I noticed when browsing at Hobbyfly for some parts I need, they have an alternate set of damper o-rings, 02004-H (hard). Has anyone tried these? I tend to think the stock ones are fine for my flying as it's plenty quick as it is and the softer ones are probably better for lower headspeeds.

There is also a hardened main rotor shaft 02006-Pro. The description just says it is hardened to be more sturdy in a crash, so I assume the length is the same?

I love the look of the aluminium anti-rotation bracket, I'd get one just for the bling factor but they're out of stock.

I am looking for just the little plastic arms that go on the pitch slider. So far I have only seen the whole assembly and I am trying to avoid paying another £13.00 on top of my crash costs that I don't really need to spend. So if any of you see just the arms by themselves let me know.

Hi.

I have the v2 kit.

It did have both hard and soft dampeners ( o-ring )

After 61 flights, the hard one was destroyed.
If you don't fly hard, just use soft.

- Now I uses some align ( don't tell anyone ) haha.
But I know from my logo, that they are stronger

I also uses the pro shaft. It's massive, where the other have hole inside, like a pipe?
( don't know the English word for it )
But it's non massive :-)


The anti- bracket is a nice upgrade, but it's really not needed.
And the colour doesn't match any other on the heli? Hehe

That's interesting. Mine came with the solid main shaft but only one set of damper o-rings so I don't know if these are the hard or the softer ones. I have some Robbe and Vario o-rings that I think are the same size but the stock ones still look OK so I am leaving them for now.

I thought I might be able to temporarily fit a different tail hub/grips/slider but nothing I have is a direct match.

I did discover that the Ely.Q Ultimate 50 tail belt is the same length and pitch so I might try it.
