      If you try the stock wand what I would suggest is to see how much slack there is when it is inserted
      in the start hex adaptor. The main reason mine wore off so quickly is because it was just too loose
      and not enough contact area inside the hex adaptor and then the softness of the metal allowed
      it to just wear off the edges. Also, Align tends to make everything to suit their own products so
      it's possible the Align helis might have hex adaptors that are slightly smaller than some other brands.

          OK..so... i got the robbe starter shaft today and guess what, it looks nothing like the picture, it looks EXACTLY the same as the Align shaft.. there is no more surface area as per website pic... i just hope the metal is better than the align..
          i wanted this shaft for the stronger metal AND because The Hex tip is enlongated to give a more positive engagement with the coupling..the robbe one i got is not elongated...
          I bought from midland not fl but it still the HFSSTQ08T-G shaft..
          i thought it would look like thiselongated.jpg HFSSTQ08TGG[1].jpg
