Part that I don't know the name for or where to get it.

Wraggfreak

Hello there, New on the forum and have a found a new interest in RC helicopters. I've only got a Sky King 8501 and struggling to find a part. I've no idea what it's called, but it's the bit thats like a black spacer in the rotor that you have to pull out in order to get the blades out. I've lost 2 of for the B set of blades. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is it one of these things?

"Inner Shelf B"

"Main Blade Grip Set"

"Center Hub A & Main Shaft B"

It's the part that you slot in after you put the blade on then screw it in. Kinda like a washer or spacer. Sorry can't get a pic of it up on my pc.

Is it a horse shoe shape and has has a short round stub that fits in the blade hole and is part of the blade holder? I dont have a picture, but if you look on doublehorse parts listing, you'll see all the parts for the rotor and blade holder parts. My 9104 has them so maybe you can search the 9104 parts and see if you recognize it.

On ebay, type in DoubleHorse 9104 and scroll down on the first page to a grip set. The seller is everbella, I think the part is under $3 us and $1.50 for shipping. It's a bummer to have a small piece keeping you from enjoying the copter. Get a few extra blades while at it.

Hope this helps. By the way the 9104 can be had for around $60, free shipping. It is a two blade copter, easy to fly and is built like a tank, weighs as much to, but very durable. I think most Double Horse models are.
