If you got the tail output shaft with that new tail, you will be impressed with it versus the EXI output shaft. When I was just starting I bent 4 of them on some stiff landings, then I got the tarot output shaft and still have not bent it in almost 6 months. My last crash I hit the house and my EXI shaft would have bent, not the tarot.

i think it just the grips and slider

get the shafts too, not to bad in price. I bought two packs of 2 for $25 out the door with rush shipping from hong kong, I forgot what site I used.

yeah thats the blade grips and hub only.
If I remember this is what I ordered. They are for the sport but got them to work on the Pro version. One setback, they are a bit smaller in length than the originals but are rock solid.

yeah, Those are for the sport but work on the clone pro versions. When I got mine they had the hole drilled in the shaft versus the milled groove in the end. They got updated when align updated their tail shafts.

 

[wolfman76]

i believe i have align tail shafts right now should i order those too??? or will i got work good???

 

[murankar]

If your shaft is align belt drive use that. Since you are flying the exi I figured you had the exi tail output shaft.

Of course this is if you have belt.

 

[wolfman76]

it is belt but the belt itself is align the tail setup that is on it now i think i got metal upgrade from hobbypartz.com
