I have just noticed while having a hover that my pinion and main gear are slipping, makes a nasty gratting noise.

Landed and stripped the heli straight away and found that the pinion has worn away very quickly. I guess I had it too tight seeing as its only see about 15 flights?

Is there a way/technique to getting this correct?
