This RC-scale feathering spindle is built for the Lepton SZM rotor head series and is offered as a replacement piece for maintenance and small repairs.
Within the rotor head the spindle holds the blade pitch linkages and transmits control motion; wear or damage can lead to inconsistent blade tracking and a vague feel during tuning.
Installation guidance: check the surrounding linkages and bearings, remove the rotor head where necessary, transfer any serviceable components, then install the spindle following common rotor head reassembly procedures; ensure blades move freely and perform a static track check before flight.
Tuning role: swapping in a new spindle can reestablish steady blade movement and make pitch adjustments more reliable during bench setup and on-site maintenance.
