    Motor Bearing Press Tool

    Bart, Does this tool press the bearings on the O.D. of the outer race or does it push on the entire bearing? In other works does it have a rim/lip on the pressing face of the face of the tool? Thanks, Jeff

    First A$$ View

    Congratulations! I remember my first solo, my leg was shaking so bad I thought I wasn't going to be able to do it. After I took off it was all smiles, that was 1997. Dang I'm old. I also remember my first solo in a helicopter, I was grinning from ear to ear. Good job. Jeff

    Naza M Lite Motor idle speed question

    On pages 20 and 21 of the Naza M Lite manual it talks about motor idle speed. I am trying to understand this section and could use some more information. I have my setting on recommended and it flies fine. Why would I need/want to change it to low or high and how would that affect the...

    Cooked 2212 Motor?

    You may want to check to see if any of the mounting screws are too long. Maybe they are protruding into the workings of the motor.
