I am in the process of setting up the RJX FBL head I have but am finding the swash driver and also the ball links on the head all very stiff which feels like it is putting a lot of stress on the swash as it rotates.
I have put the RJX balls onto the swash plate as they are slightly shorter than the Aligns and it all lines up better and puts less stress and angle changes into the system as pitch is varied. The whole set up seems way stiffer than the standard Align fly barred system and I am not sure is this is purely down to the RJX ball links.
I have tried gently reaming one, but there is not a lot of tolerance to play with. The Align ball links do not fit the RJX balls and flop all over the place- I suppose I could change the blade holder balls to Align ones.
I guess my summary is that this RJX head is not going together as smoothly as I would like and the quality of the ball links seems poor.
ANy opinions or advice.
Thanks
Alex
