ok, well, here's a thought, Graham! You have an Align 550. If yours is torque tube, would you have a part number that you could give me?

Thats the correct tail case for torque tube Derek,you can just see the half moon cut outs for the bearing that the gear sit in. Its what ive ordered for my 600 n and 550 when I had it.
It can be used with belt just leaving out the gears.

Well i'm stupid! Obviously the tail belt gear goes there aswell.
Anyway Its suitable for belt or torque tube.

When I put the code in, it said it was universal. Torque and Belt.
Heres a quote.
"This tail boom case is used on both the belt drive and the torque tube drive electric models. In order to use a torque tube, the H60122 must be installed inside the tail boom case."
So you need this to make it TT
