Tools for 600 Nitro build

[wil1972]

I need to order some additional tools for a 600LE build. What tools and sizes are required :- kit arriving this week so need to be prepared

1.5 /2.0/2.5/3.0mm alan drives and a 4.0mm for the blade bolts
pitch gauge

[Andy from Sandy]

Something to check swash level with. Something to measure link length with. G-Force hub puller for disassembly. A proper OS crankshaft lock will make it easier to do up the prop nut (if you get an OS engine).

If you can find an online manual it will show you recommended tools in the first couple of pages.

Andy, where do you get the proper crankshaft lock tool from? Dont feel like shoving a piece of dowel in a new OS55.

I was looking for that vernier attachment for the ball links - cheers for that!!

I just used those attachments with my digital caliper, made setting up the links a breeze.
