Y'know, it's entirely possible for things like main shafts, feathering
spindles, drive gears, clutches, rotor heads, tail rotor gearboxes,
blades,
tail booms, undecarriages etc to find their way onto different
manufacturers
heli's.
This may be a slightly complicated hobby, but it's not rocket science and
a
10mm shaft from one heli can EASILY be made to fit a heli the needs a 10mm
shaft. You can even buy shaft material at engineers suppliers.
I can't remember the last time I bought a manfacturers shaft for ANY
helicopter. Silver steel (and that's all you need) comes in a variety of
diameters, from 1.5, all the way to 20mm if you look hard enough.
Do some "modelling", after all, that's what this hobby is.
