Precision WInder Issue

Post by coachchuckaahs »

I have been asked to remind everyone:

The Geauga/IFFS/Wilder winder ("Precision Winder") is NOT made to take the torque these helis are requiring, and WILL FAIL, especially the 20:1 version.

Please DO NOT use the "Precision" winder, the round one in aluminum, for heli this year.

The 10:1 yellow KP winder is suitable. It may not be as nice as your precision winder, but it is designed for these higher torques.
