Re: Trex 450 Tail Drive

I have a few spares but it is a real pain to change, it takes about an
hour. 
You have to disassemble just about the entire helicopter from the
connection 
of the boom. I always look at the belt and it looks fine. Any suggestions
on 
how many hours of flying would be a reasonable time to replace it.
