I'm seriously considering moving my rotor from the top of my tower to a spot in the bottom section so that it will be easier to reach for maintenance. I'm not worried about the cost of the additional

A tower is like a very large torsion bar. It has lots of give for rotation with the guy lines serving as dampers that also limit the travel. When the rotator is moved closer to the bottom of the towe

Roger It is true that the tower acts as a torsion bar in the high rotor configuration. The extent that the tower deflects and acts as a damper (what is the source of the damping?) will depend on the

Does your rotator break down that often? For what they do, rotators are pretty rugged pieces of equipment. If yours is constantly breaking, perhaps you need to move to a larger rotator? What maintena

Well I have to agree on applying a suitable rotator that is oversized so you do not have mess with it very often. I have turned an A3S for many years with an Alliance rotator, it finally bit the dust

This brings up a thought I've had for a while (forgive me for veering off a bit) and that is using a rotor plate for an intermediate bearing, or is the hole wrong? I've thought that the thrust bearin

I did that, but with a custom plate that fits in the center of a section. As Steve said, the standard Rohn plate won't fit there. W8TTH made the plate. http://normsfab.com 73, Mike NF4L _____________

The problem comes getting the rotators in and out at places other than where the reinforcements leave a gap. Some fit and some don't. On my 25G I could only get the rotator in an out at those gaps. M

If your reason for another rotor plate with a bearing is due to the fact that you want a place to store the mast pipe while the rotor is out, then some additional consideration might be in order. Jus

Will 10' of space from the thrust bearing to the rotator be good or will that cause other problems? 73 NR6M   ex: KF7NMD Sincerely, Rex Turvin www.nr6m.com ________________________________ From: Mike
