The clutch liner on my Stratus has loosened. When I bought it it was used and I think that maybe one of the previously owners have used cyano. For many years ago I changed a clutch liner because of the chicken dance and back then I used "contact glue". Is contact glue still the best glue to use (I know that cyano wont do) or is epoxy a better choice?
I want to do it right the first time because I have to disassemble half of the helicopter to get to the clutch!

JB weld will handle the heat better.

I agree! Just curious, does anyone know of any other epoxy compound that has a higher heat tolerance than JB?

Thanks for your replies. I found it very usefull. Especially the link. It was not fastened with cyano but with some grey substance. I think it was some form of epoxy. I have fixed it with epoxy and put it in the owen to harden the epoxy maximum. It seems to be OK now.
By the way: The Stratus is the most fantastic helicopter I have ever flown and I have a hard time to imagine that the new 90 could be any better but if it is its just great

I use the MA JB welding or 2K epoxy (from the local store)
Never had a Liner that gone loose.
