Tail rotor not perfectly verticle.Problem?
I have a Flasher 500 and the tailboom will not tighten up.
The pin and slot are sloppy in the boom block as well.As soon as I spool up,the boom turns a little CW.

CCW piros are fine but CW piros push up on the tail.
Also,flips always tend to end about 45 degrees off.Especially backflips.

I have an Align TT set up complete but wanted to keep it for parts.

Will CA glue hold the tail boom in place?
It's already on there and drying.
If I don't like it,I guess I'll just throw the whole tail away.

This heli is almost all Align now anywayI literally never use the word literally right.

CA should work, but the first thing to try might've been just roughing up the boom tube with coarse sandpaper where it mates with the block.op-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-thwop-t

you need to pin the boom by drilling a small hole through the boom block and boom and then screw a sel tapping screw into that hole, this should be done with all TT helis
