  • Mini Titan E325 tail not level, is this normal ?

    Hi All,
    The local heli club noticed that my mini titan e325 tail is not quite straight, meaning it dosent square up with the gyro etc, but as its a little fella they were not overly familiar with it ( thay all have big toys )
    I had a crash 2 weeks ago and i had to replace the boom, it has 2 slots that go in to the tail housing and 1 slot for the main frame end..
    Is it possible that the slots that are cut into the boom have not been cut in the exact correct place ?
    this would explain why the tail is slightly turned down to the right, in fact its the only thing i can think of why this would be, i have taken it apart and reassembled , everything looks to be fitting fine but tail is the same ..slightly leaning down to the right.. is this normal for the E325 ?
    I cant remember if it was like that before as i am new to the hobby.
    thanks Rob

    Just checked my Mini Titan and the tail drive shaft is perfectly parallel to the top of the gyro, so it sounds as though either your tail boom is twisted or the tail box has not lined up correctly. Checked on a new tail boom and the two narrow slots are at exactly 90 degrees to the wider one that fits into the tail gear holder.

    Hope this helps you find the problem.

        hmm, thanks guys, i think i might file or cut the boom slot at the frame end. that way i can twist it round a bit.. must be a problem with the replacement booms..
