My Posts This: Topic Forum | The microheli washout set requires that you use the plastic arms from the stock washout. There is a pin holding each of these arms in place on the stock piece which you are supposed to remove and then pin into the CNC piece. The problem is, these pins don't fit into the holes on the CNC piece. I mean I can work them if I pushed them really hard, but they are supposed to be lose fitting so that the pin can slide in the hole in the CNC piece but fit snug into plastic of the arms. Has anyone else had this experience? I wanted to check before I go ahead and try to ream these brass holes in the washout. Since these holes act as bearing surfaces to the pins which do in fact move quite a bit, I am sure I am going to have to do a better job than just running a drill through them. Also if I make them too big, the slop will be terrible.

. The stuff which I am using from cnchelicopter is also not perfect. For example washout has quite of play. Maybe mine is getting old. Seesaw - no bearings and very prone to bent on crash, although it is $10 to replace, which is good.
