I have a pair of cast iron VH flywheels plus conrod if they are of any use to you.

Hi Stefan, you have found the cause of the noise that was heard in the Black Forest! There is a good chance that Draganfly has one. I could bring it to the Austrian rally.

Hi Roger,
that sounds good to me. The big end pin had a lot of play in the drive site flywheel. I will send a email to you. Thank you.

The press fit crankpin with steel wheels ( on the VH) can have a lot of problems but are the preferred type for revs and hard work. Steel wheels can warp whereas cast iron won't bend, but it will break . Some of the LATER VH & VCH wheels break IF used hard THEY are IRON with Tapered crankpins. Check run out of each mainshaft as you are assembling in it's taper. IF you can't get that satisfactory don't proceed because it won't be right ever. When they were new the assembly was (relatively) simple but some have had a hard life. Nev
