« on: March 21, 2016, 02:31:51 PM »
Hi to all guys!
I'm Manuel from Italy.

The kit is finished,breakin ok for my 105 HZ-R.

5th flight,idle 2...a killer tail slide,stop and wobble (little) on head are coming.

Try to modifiy swash gain,nothing.

Problem is founded.

The swash plate have a vertical play to lower part from upper part.

Maybe 2 mm is the play,with "toc toc" rumor when I move the parts with hand.

The question are:

How I do for solve problem?Synergy send to me a new part?

Very important:safety!I can fy with that problem or I will take a risk?

Sorry to all for my superb language ;)....help is needed!!

Best regards.

you can fix this issue yourself, just have to be careful. OR, you can email Matt, and see what he thinks.

take your swash off the heli, turn it upside down, sat it on top of a large socket (one large enough to NOT touch the pivot ball or clam shell, but sit on the INNER ring of the swash), gently tap the swash back tight (from the bottom of the wash), then take a small flat head screw driver and gently roll the edge of the inner swash back out over the inner race of the bearing by tapping gently with a small hammer.

there is a really good thread with pictures out there somewhere, let me look for it a bit. I don't have any pictures of the last one I had to do. hopefully I find the thread, or someone can get some pics and post them.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Now,if I go to fly in this swash condition I will go down for failure?

Thanks again...

I would not fly it until you re-swedge it the way I laid out above. IF it failed, yes, it could be very dangerous.

this is not a common problem at all. very few swashplates that I know of have done this. did you crash it? a crash is the usual culprit.

did my explanation make sense?

I have authorized Trevor to do the repair on your swash plate. The process is very simple so if you would like you can do it yourself as well.

Thanks,

Matt

This was an issue with my n7 as well. Brand new kit and the swash had the same problem after only a couple of flights. No worries though I fixed it the same exact way as described above and after many hard flights it is still perfect .
