| Hi Guys,
I've been working on my Beam Build and love it. However, while watching Finless' video of the tail build, he brought light that the manual calls out two different sized spacers/washers in the tail pitch lever (a .5mm and a .7mm). I pulled mine apart and oddly enough BOTH of them are .5mm. I don't have a .7mm in the box.
So my question is, has anybody else seen this issue of 2 .5mm and no .7mm?
I'm guessing that the thicker one is placed inside the lever/ebow to provide spacing between the two bearings so they don't get pinched since the lever is just plastic. I did put it together as-is (prior to getting to the end of Bob's vid) and it seems to work with no binding. Any comments on using the .5mm when the manual calls for the larger .7mm spacing?
Thanks, John G. |
