Maybe Floyd can fix this issue. I ended up using the old Fireball ones. Rod. I got to say, Rod, I'm not sure why the APR 39s didn't fit. They looked perfect when I tested them on my kit part.

salvador001 Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hmmm thats strange, maybe it was only my parts. Ill buy a set for my next one just to confirm. Thanks Ray! Rod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rotorwash Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Floyd and I want them right, Rod, so I'm happy for feedback. Can you post a photo of yours on a kit nose part so I can see what's different? Thanks, Ray Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The 3D parts are amazing Ray, Floyd did a great job with it, and your support as always is awesome. Chris, the dampers were lowered a couple of mm because i cut the mast to make it smaller. Rod. Can you explain/show how you did that lowering of the dampers? Chris. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
