I am quite impressed with the quality of this piece. The black interconnecting piece is made of a thick carbon fiber plate. The rest of the parts are of good quality. The push-rod connector was a little loose but that was solved with a washer and it's no problem now. I have it installed on a Align 450L Dominator that has the 360mm blades so I had to use a regular 450 tail boom with this to accommodate the longer blades as this is meant for 325mm blades. This not meant for scale fuselages that I know of because the gears will stick out a little to far but if you don't mind modding the fuselage a bit it might work. Keep in mind this will make your heli a bit tail heavy so plan on adding some weight to the front. I will post pic's as well Thanks

Recieved today. Excellent quality. Was pleasantly surprised to find that the thickness, and subsequently strength, of the drive belts is much better than stock. The mounting adapter for the frame really is nescesary as the new belts require the included sprocket drive. Really nice bit of kit for the price. Remember, this is for pod and boom heli's only. This won't fit into any scale fuselage that you can buy.

I have similar item from another manufacturer and fly it as pod and boom,when fitted with these the helicopter does not sit at an angle that is noticable when hovering tail in.

Generally of good quality, but the idler pulley is very loose allowing a large sideways movement. Unsure if it is a one off on mine. Easy to correct, but something to watch out for. Would have been a well deserved 5* had it not been for this issue.
