Gnats for your video. I'm trying to figure out how they rotate. It seems like it's all bolted together when I put all the bolts in. I guess I just need to wire it up and see what happens.

Where did you mount to thrust bearing? How big in OD pipe will this rotor accept? What kind of mast pipe did you use?

It's Me Again thanks. I installed the 450’in my tower today. Posted it on my channel. I didn’t know these had plastic gears in them:( too late now hihi

@@JayN4GO My rotator just stopped today it's not like I use it everyday. I put it together about 6 months ago on top of my roof and mounted it to the chimney. I figure something inside of the rotator has malfunctioned . I don't have a warranty on it and I will just have to climb a ladder and hand turn it when necessary. I sure am glad I didn't put it on my 50 foot tower. Plastic gears could be the same crap inside it. The control box sends power to the rotator and you can hear it up on the roof trying to turn . The strange thing about it today was no wind or rain it just completely died..

[@tlcgolden]

Maybe the TA 33 mosley was a little oversize for it to turn after all .. I don't know it sucks

@@lostinspace280 that’s ok. I went with gas pipe. Very heavy. Not the best for lighter yagis but I’ve seen emt top rail bend over in wind. Saving my Pennies for aluminum haha

@@lostinspace280 first of all. Great call sign for Cw. You really lucked up on that one Ken. I’m still back and forth about winter fd. I think there’s a 160m contest that same weekend. Naqp Cw is this weekend! It should be a slower contest if you want to give it a try. Name and state is the exchange. Hoping some of these guys slow down for people:)
