I've been flying mine for a few months now bone stock and haven't had any of the seesaw, or any other issues for that matter, on mine. I check the seesaw after and before every flight just to make sure the stock bolts don't loosen up on me and so far they've held on. I figure if they were to loosen up it of done it by now. The 8mm head upgrade looks nice though.

Yes but from what Rusty says the pictures don't do it justice, mine will be here tomorrow and we will run it and test some different dampers so we can have some data for everyone.

Will probably try the K&B, and infinivations, to compare them to
the stock RJX "O-ring" dampers

Now my turn :(

Thought it would not happen to me but it did. One of the bolt came loose and went missing. The heli still fly quite normal though, only exhibiting somewhat looseness in cyclic and wobbling at times. Just replace the screw no problem but I suffered another mishap on my next flying session. The washout lever ball link broke in the air and again I was lucky not to crash my heli, managed to save it on time needing to hold full positive pitch to only stop the heli from touching terra firma lol.

After inspecting the damage, I could only theorize that the previous incident of throwing the see saw screw might have damaged the wash out lever plastic ball link and I must have missed it during the previous inspection, this I can't be sure but I am decided on upgrading the new rotorhead.

So today I flew 3 flights with the new rotorhead and I noticed immediately that my usual 6 deg of cyclic that is plenty fast for me had become very slow. I had to increase my dual rate by as much as 20% to get close to what I used to have. Same blades, same paddles and servos. Anyone getting the same result? I can't quite get my phasing right too.
