Ok, so I tried to replace the front drive cog that came with my Skyhawk 66. The cog they sent me was had a larger diameter hole than the one that broke. I did find one that did work but the keyway was not the right size. So I made a keyway and I thought it was the right size.
After fifteen hours of runtime I pull up to a light close to my house and I think that my clutch pads were not engaging. Turns out that the keyway broke and then the cog unscrewed itself. I just got done making another one. I had to go to the hardware store and buy a keyway that was much bigger and then cut and grind it to size.(burnt my fingers grabbing the metal after I hacksawed it)
Has anybody else had this problem?
