The Kyosho H6008 main rotor grip is an aftermarket replacement intended to take the place of worn grips on Concept 60 helicopters. This note explains its role inside the head assembly, checklist items for replacement, and how it influences flight characteristics.
Fitment applies to Concept 60 models that use Kyosho Concept 60-style rotor heads; verify the H6008 against your rotor head geometry before fitting. Because the grip forms the mechanical link between blade grips and the rotor head, any wear or play will present as increased vibration, degraded cyclic precision, or erratic pitch tracking.
Installation tips: inspect the grip for surface wear, check bearing bores and blade-pin holes for deformation, and replace pins or circlips showing wear. Use the specified hex key sizes and controlled torque on fasteners, then re-establish blade tracking and swashplate centre during the final setup. Conduct gentle hover checks to confirm smooth cyclic inputs.
Tuning impact: replacing a worn grip with a properly matched Kyosho H6008 helps recover sharp cyclic response and steadier collective-to-pitch behaviour, making it a common maintenance item for Concept 60 models.
