Flight

 

Steve,

I noticed in your attached picture a solid aluminum tube feeding the redrive. Please check this often, and consider supporting the tube in mid span to avoid the possibility of fatigue cracking from (the 'non-existant') vibration.

 

I have basically the same setup.  I put a ‘snubber’ at the re-drive plate.

Good advice, the same setup (as Al's) has worked on mine for 1600+ hours.
