Default Tekin T8 rotor

I've already spoke to Marvin and contacted Tekin directly but does anyone on here have a spare T8 rotor?

Mine was damaged by a loose pinion bending the shaft!

You may be able to get it straightened by a friendly engineering company. I did this with some helicopter main shafts and they were great.

Having seen it, I'm not so sure.

Are Tekin sending you one? When do you need it by?

Hmm, they will take a couple of days to answer - there aren't many people at Tekin, and the number of emails must be massive - coupled with the fact that it's not Mr Pike's main role either. If they haven't replied by Friday, then I'd be more concerned.

I'm sure I could send you a rotor (if you pay the postage) for this weekend, especially if you get new ones and send one of those to me (like for like).

I think they're sending Sam a couple of new ones now. I've also sent him one of my spare rotors for now. Good idea if it's urgent though.
