Am i missing something???

[Nick B]

So my 700 was not buit by me nor have i ever built one,but surley,if i take out the bottom jesus bolt the mainshaft should just pull out,no???

If so then mine is stuck fast

[squeaky pete]

look closer dude, theres another 2 bolts on the headblock

[squeaky pete]

my bad, mis read, your screwed mate lol

[Nick B]

LOL....thats just great,best i never crash it

[squeaky pete]

giv it a wiggle lol

[LipolyGone]

or you could undo the bearing holders & pop the lot out of the frame to see why.
My guess is its just stuck a bit & needs a good tug.
ohhherrrrrr.

I had one get stuck once and was a bitch toi get out, i had to beat it and it came out eventually, it was corrosion that got it stuck

Just to clarify, are you talking about the jesus bolt that goes through the main gear/autorotation tail drive gear? Have you tried holding the gear(s) and twisting the head as if you were trying to unscrew the main shaft from the gears or even turning the gears on the main shaft? It might do the trick...

I had this problem on my Trex 600,

I simply took a hammer and small screwdriver and tapped away

Stand on the skids and PULL

[Cuppa]

Yeh mine got stuck in the bearing blocks, (KDE Direct) it were a bit of rust on the shaft

rofl align.....

Haha,ive tried all methods this eve inc the standing on the skids with hex driver through top jesus bolt hole,it turns in the gear so it must be rust on the bearings....nice one,when i try next i will give it a tap

[squeaky pete]

recommend a 8lb sledge hammer, should do the trick nicely

Just keep tugging on your shaft. I am sure that you'll get a release eventually
