g20 tail upgrades fit on a falcon?

[jjoos99]

I have a falcon that the tail just sucks on. Now matter what I do to the slider and arms it sticks and is not smooth causing the tail to not hold steady in hover at all. I see that the g20 offers an upgraded slider with upper and lower pivot arms that even out the control on the slider, (just like my hirobo sdx) Does anyone know if these parts will work on the falcon tail? Part #hi3087c and hi6102b
thanks

Wow, an old Falcon?? Do you know what version you have? As I never had or saw that issue with any I had or that my club members had?

When you disconnect the bellcrank from the slider and then try to move it back and forth, is there any excessive binding happening?

The only issue I ever came up against with it was if someone had installed the M3X5X.5 spacer in the blade grip holder in the wrong sequence. When that happened everything would look smooth on the bench, but then the T/R grip would resist movement when it was spun up to speed and the centrifugal forces would pull outward on the blade grip.

You may be looking to change something that may really not need changing.

I believe it is the se version and yes it i try and move the slide arm it is not smooth And binds some i have sanded the shaft and took a light file to the brass part of the slide all with not much effect.i almost hate.to.fly it for that reason.
