Longevity of Assan GA-250

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

I have 4 of these GA250 gyros in HK250 up to HK500 with 100 plus flights. I found that vibration affects this gyro and makes it wander. After some careful balancing of the main rotor and especially the tail rotor the gyros work fine. If you have touched the ground even slightly with the tail rotor check your tail rotor hub it could be bent causing vibration.
