Hi all,

I'm transferring out of the Lounge to continue the story.

I'm waiting on VR to answer a query about their missing balls (excuse my language). Here are some photos to show progress so far. Fresh from my friend's 3D printer, the new swash alignment tool for when I get the balls to fix the links to. First test of whether they will provide support in future.

Well engineered and robust components, as would be expected or a monster size heli!

Shame about the missing balls. Hope you get replacements send promptly

I've had some correspondence from them and looks like I'll be buying a complete set of the balls, the missus wasn't very pleased that her gift was lacking parts. I've done some measuring up and found equivalently sized alternatives that fit snugly from my 550 DFC Head and the tail, although I'll only use them to set things up whilst waiting for the originals to arrive if there's a delay. Up to now, I'm not very impressed with their responses.

In the meantime, there's plenty to do in other areas.

Poor show asking you to pay for items clearly missing from the kit
