sloppy nexus

[phil485]

Hi guys,

I can't be the last one persevering wit a nexus so.

Are there any tricks to getting rid of the slop in the head. If I hold one blade still I can move the other one about 10 degrees. It looks like the arms themselves flex and move, also the wire pitch guide thingys, rotate around the mast. All in all it doesn't do my confidence any good at all. All the allen bolts are tight and I can't see any other reason for it??

its a nexus!!!

[Ade_Law]

oh dear... can I actually be doing what I am about to do???

chappers is right!

sorry dood.

[chappers]

dont worry Ade, im sure you will find something else to disagree about!

[phil485]

It must be christmas if ade adn chappers agree! 8O

Looks like I'm stuck with scaring myself silly everytime I try to turn a bit hard. :cry:

It's either that or Chappers has worn him down -
One word of consolation about the Nexus if your at the very begining of your learning curve - sloppy or tight I don't think it makes much difference .

I've still got one ops:


It flies OKish but I've fiddled and bodged it a fair bit, changed links, pitchslider, swash, bearings for bushes etc. etc.

Main slop on mine is as you say at the grips but it is all coming from the plastic washout assy for which I've not yet found a cheap upgrade that fits and I don't want to spend money on it ie Zeal bits

I have one in the "hanger" as well although it has not flown since I got the Raptor. Think I will slap it on ebay as it might fund some bits for the 50...
