My Posts This: Topic  Forum		What is the size of the thrust bearings for the tail of an ECO 8? And, Where do you get them? What about for the main rotor?

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		The feathering shaft is 4mm. The Thrust bearing kit utilizes a special cup washer which extends the length of the feathering shaft to accomodate.

Availible at www.fxaeromodels.com

See the file section at the bottom of my gallery for a CAD of the assembly. This will give you a better idea of my rambling.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		 It looks like they have removed them from their product list. It used to be product number 689. Give them a call and see if they have any on the shelf.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Did some searching. I have yet to buy anything from CME hobbies but they have been around. Here is a link to the Thrust bearing upgrade:

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I bought those

I bought that bearing kit from CME, it arrived in 5 days just as ordered. You can get the thrust bearings from VBX for cheaper, but you won't get the T-nuts or bearing cups that come with the kit.
