| It says nothing about removing the tail drive assembly, just the blades. It seems the first step is removing the main blades, tail blades, and the flybar assembly. I can only assume he means remove everything but the rotor head but I suppose I could also just remove the flybar, control horn and the two links that connect it to the swashplate?
I'm 100% sure my linkages are exact so symetry shouldn't be an issue. It's also a brand new hardened X3D main shaft so it should be perfectly straight. This was a replacement since my kit came with the old soft shaft.
Anyhow, with just the rotor head and grips (no linkage or flybar) attached to the mainmast I decided to insert it into the main chassis and rotate it to verify a smooth. I remeber felling a small wobble? This can onl lead me to beleive that my rotor head is out of balance (is it possible I used to much glue on one side?) or MS needs quality control on their main shafts!
