[TowerTalk] Rotor Questions

[Robert C. Boyd]

I have a Hygain CD45-II rotor which turns an A3S.  I have problems
getting the brake to release, especially but not limited to cold
weather.  Was rebuilt by Hygain 3 years ago, and evidently needs
to go back again.

Questions are:

Any ideas what may be causing this, and what I might do to fix it?

Does a brake-delay kit, such as offered by Norm's or RotorDoc,
really help to reduce brake problems?

I might ask Santa Claus to assist on the cost of an ORION rotor.
Boy, at their price it ought to really be good!  Who is using one
and would care to comment, pro and con, on the ORION OR-2800?

Thanks all,
