My Posts This: Topic Forum | Does anybody still fly the mx450? Mine is the one I try new maneuvers with so it gets crashed the most. The drive gears are getting hard to find. Are there others that will fit with no or maybe small modification? I keep stripping gear teeth. I found that my frame is flexing and the gear lash increases under load. My fix for that is to install a second motor mount bracket just behind the motor. It acts like a bulkhead. Also I installed a couple of the brackets for the tail drive shaft, in between the frames at the front. This really stiffens up the frame. Now I just need to figure out what to do about the main gear. Any Ideas? Jim |
