  • 600 nitro V2 limited edition FBL head options.

    Hi all.
    Is there a FBL head available for the V2?
    If anyone knows, will you be kind enough to show me links of what i will need.
    I am really getting confused of all the options out there

    Cheers
    Panos.

            In what way? Flybarless conversion?

              Take a look here, this is the standard flybarless head for the 600

              Mine has the new 600e pro headblock with integrated swash driver. Coupled with the fbl new mainshaft which is 10mm shorter this takes the overall reduction to 20mm. With this you need the 550 swash to blade grip links

              http://www.modelhelicopters.co.uk/60...r-housing.html

              You need different balls on the inner swash too (shorter)

                  No it wont. The DFC shaft has a raised ring that goes against the top bearing. I don't think the standard 600 will take it. Unless the distance is the same from the underside to the centre of the bottom Jesus bolt

                    Align are bringing out DFC shafts for the 600 nitro shortly. Confirmed by Skyline models recently.

                      I think I may just wait for the DFC shaft as I don't fancy drilling and cutting down main shafts every time I need one.

                      Or go with monsul's option.

                      Thanks guys.

                          Ok so I couldn't wait for the new DFC shaft from Align so I modified mine.
                          Here are some pictures of the modified shaft for those who are interested.

                          All measurements I got them from here ( Thanks Rob )

                          DFC head should be her today and hopefully on the 600 by tonight.
