> With the rotor at the top and any mast being held by only the > top clamp of the rotor, how can people be using 5'-10' masts? Placing any more than 12-18" above the rotor is nothing short of crazy. Wishful thinking would be the polite expression. Waiting for disaster is a close second. Rotor load figures are derated by x2 by the second mast mount fixture, as it is. I have assumed that those using longer masts are base rotating the MA series towers. n2ea |
