Metal Edition ES 600 Washout Arm Connection

Hey Nuttcaze, on your ES600 build video you say to connect the washout arms to the short balls on the swashplate. I've seen other posts that say they should be on the long one's. Do you still stand by what you said on the vid?. There is supposed to be a binding problem at full collective that will pop the washout arm off the ball with it on the short one. Please don't think I'm trying to second guess you, but sometimes you learn new stuff. Mine is the full metal. I'm gonna go with what you say.

I do believe the wash out arms go on the long balls. otherwish all 4 links are funky angles. The wash's will angle in and the long links will angle out. with washouts on the long balls everything is straight.

Don, If you go to Nuttsey's old site and click the ES600 link and scroll down to the pix you will see that he has the washout's on the long balls. I think he must have made a mistake in the vid if he says otherwise.

I think you're right Fatdaddy. Thanks for the info. I feel better about it now.
