Sorry to hear about that Steve.

What type of engine was that agian?..... ZDZ?

Really though that sucks two sets of bearings already?

Better start carrying spares.... like props.

Sea you in 3 weeks then.

Steve did you replace the bearings yourself or send it back??

Just wondering if they checked to see if the case itself is twisted
