  • Blade grips

    Hi all I’m trying to convert robbe Millenium blade grips to suit flybarless
    and I need either a m4 x 12mm thread x 12mm ball link
    or a
    m3x 25mm thread x12mm ball link

    or have you any suggestions as to fit ball links onto plastic blade grips

    It's a bit of a challenge because the grip arms are made to fit a mixer arm with an m3 bolt. I am doing this as well but for the moment I have a pair of Outrage grips fitted until I find a good way to adapt the Robbe grips. I have converted them as an experiment using a pair of the big ball links that go on the flybar. But I think maybe a more elegant solution would be something like this: https://www.rcworld.co.uk/cgi-bin/sh...2Ehtml#SID=105

    You'd just have to then fit some kind of adaptor on the link rod down to a more normal size for a link that fits the swash.

        When you get something working let me know what you arrived at. I also have a pair of the ali Robbe grips but I haven't used them yet because apparently they need to be heated for the bearings to fit, I was not able to just push the bearings in.
