This RC-scale item is the Hirobo HI0412132 collective pitch bolt, made for Sceadu SD series helicopters. The description highlights its role as the fixed link in the collective pitch assembly rather than a general-purpose screw.
The bolt acts as the pivot or join point for collective linkages that adjust blade pitch. When fitting a replacement, ensure linkage geometry is correct and that the collective travels freely across its entire range to avoid uneven blade pitch or binding.
Installation notes: begin by threading the bolt by hand to confirm proper mating, then incrementally tighten while monitoring linkage motion. Avoid overtightening and take the opportunity to inspect surrounding components like ball links and rods for wear. This component is supplied for RC use only and not for manned aircraft.
