Hector AD6D used to be the Spid repair guy for Force12 in the US, maybe look him up and send him an email.

Hello Group I'am currently replacing the motors on my AlfaSpid RAS and the azimuth motor is no problem but on the elevation motor there is what I call a hidden screw. It's tucked away down in the housing. you can see it and get a screwdriver to it,BUT, there is no slot for the screwdriver. The head is hollowed out as for a allen wrench,BUT, no hex for the wrench to grab. I don't think that it has been rounded out because I bought the rotor new and it's never been apart before by me. All the other attaching screws are flat headed screws so not sure why this one is different. Anyway I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience with this before ?
Thanks John W0JW
