How do you guys balance the 2.4 14mz? With the 2.4 module, it will have a tendency to flip backwards if the normal strap hook point is used. I have seen some balancing fixtures that can be bolted on the strap hook, but I'm not sure if anyone's making this commercially for the 14mz?

well I don't see it as a issue since I'm a thumber myself but I think that most systems made for other radios should work on the 14mz?

Hi simon, can you post a couple of close-up pics around the 14mz strap hook? After tightening the lock nut, can the balancer still rotate during use? The protrusion of the balancer might also be a problem when putting back the radio into the radio case?

I solved my problem like this:
However, the spektrum balancer looks nice. The only thing thats wrong is that you can't tight it down as is. You need a 4mm self locking nut and put it on backwards so it will lock into the 14mz strap hole or it will slip no matter how hard you tighten it up

Hi its mine,the balancer is set using a slightly longer bolt and use the bush with a washer and not using the DX7 fitting on the bottom. Set it up once and leave it.
