Has anyone managed to assemble the shaft over the 3 O rings? I find it completely impossible. I suspect that oversize rings have been fitted? as soon as you get past one it just squeezes out through the allen screw fixing hole making it impossible to pass on to the next without sheering through the first
Can't help you with this, Techno but I hope you don't mind me asking a related question rather than starting a new thread.
I have snapped one of the antennae of my Status 530. Are these easy to replace?

Gerry, yes it says that in the instructions. I've concluded the O rings are too thick and not to original specification (a supply problem perhaps) I've emailed Grade/UK for their opinion.
I fitted one to my Hobby last week and didn't encounter a problem fitting the shaft over the O rings. It sounds as you say, the O rings are too big.
I did think, as I was assembling the ariel that 3 O rings were a bit of an over kill just to seal the head unit to the shaft.

Hi mixy
Yes I've just removed the Orings now knackered anyway and actually struggled to get the mast onto the head even without them I doubt I could separate them now
