  • How to remove stuck tail hub from shaft?

    Trying to get the tail hub off as I want to put the whole thing on a highpoint balancer. but after I have taken out the grub screw, the tail hub is still stuck on the shaft!
    Trex 700e DFC HV version.
    Am I missing something from the manual? I thought I just needed to take the grub screw off?!

    Managed to get it out. I think locktight got to it from the grub screw.
    Combination of solder iron and using over mitts to grab the umbrella gear and twisting the tail hub till it became free.

      Is probably stuck due to excess loctite. You could try removing the grips and applying some gentle heat with a hot air gun etc.

      EDIT: Looks like I was typing at the same time as you managed to fix the problem.
