My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I am at the end of the first gallon and I have noticed that if I hold tight the pinion on the upper gear with a hand, and rotate the tail blades with the other hand, they have A LOT of play (like over five minutes if the t/r was a clock).

How far should you be able to turn the tail blades before the main blades turn?

Thanks in advance.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		might want to open the tail gearbox and check the gear being fed directly by the torque shaft. I had noise issues and tore into it, it was pretty loose. It's slop is minimal now.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Thanks I did that, gear appear good I just found a normal play, the torque shaft is quite snug. Also checked the other side at the trasmission and it's ok. Basically all the components by themselves have the right minimum play, I can't understand why the tail blades have this huge play when everything is assembled.

The play you are getting is normal. If you add up all the play in all the little parts. 5 Minutes is pretty good.
