        Does anyone know if the metal gears rub up against the FET like the stock one does? The standard trick with the plastic one seems to be a bit of emery paper to give enough clearance. Doubt you can (easily) do this with the metal option!

            I ordered one from the US and knew from others experience that in all likelihood it would rub so checked the size against the plastic gear and sure enough it was too big. Double checking in the heli and it was touching the fet.

            Stuck it in a drill and used some wet and dry to reduce the size down so I could just get a piece of paper between the fet and gear. All worked fine for a few flights but I have noticed some slight wear on the fet so will reduce the size a touch more

            Only takes a few minutes so still worth getting one. The benefits of the metal gear are worth the hassle, should fit out the packet though, a bit more clearance should have been built in the design

                  They were in stock, but now they're not.

                  If you want one, just order from the USA. Mine arrived in 6 working days and including shipping, it cost about the same as the UK price without the shipping.
                  Current fleet: Goblin Thunder Sport (700), Trex 700L, Logo 600, Specter 700, Henseleit TDR, V-Baaa control.
                  Next heli: I have pretty much everything I want. Maybe I'll upgrade some electronics or something.

                          Just had an email from Revolution Models saying my order has been completed, so hopefully it should arrive tomorrow. They're already showing as out of stock on the website, so I guess all of the initial order must have gone already.
                          cheers,

                          Mick
