Replacement bearings

[phil67]

As quite a few people on the forum think the align bearings are of poor quality, i was thinking of replacing all the bearings in the 2nd hand rex 600 i brought off ebay as i have no idea of the history of the heli.

Anyone got a complete list for replacement bearing for a T Rex 600 N like the skf bearing and good locations to buy from?


Cheers

Thanks matey, just got a quote from RC bearings, i wrote down every bearing from the manual, except the thrust bearings and i was very surprised at the low price, so will be placing an order and will be replacing the whole lot on my not so good win on ebay.

The lynx upgrade bearing holders with thrust bearing are nice I have them on my 700 and the bearings are as smooth as you like with a years use...the ones that always goes in my 600 is the one in the clutch stack....
