Mileage: 4 rph [rotors per hour]...What Gives??

Re: Mileage: 4 rph [rotors per hour]...What Gives

Well I guess Dave and Jeff's suggestions should keep ever one out of trouble. However, if you do find a rotor with a loose brass terminal and it is all you have. You can re seat it firmly using a bit of super glue inserted between the contact and the plastic rotor base. Cracking of the rotor if it fits well initially except it is tight going on may be either a manufacturing tolerance problem or as I have found some times a burr appears on the top edge of the rotor slot. When the rotor is forced on it scribes the inside of the rotor enhancing its possibility of failure. Correcting this problem only require a bit of cleaning using an Arkansas stone.--Fwiw--Keoke

Would that be a hard or soft Arkansas stone... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif And, could a Washita stone be used instead?? /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif

How about reef coral?
I've got a bunch of it.

Should I include it with Crypty's
emergency repair kit?
