BEARING: Patented dual-pivot design (patent# 102007029039A1) also used in the rotor heads of helicopters. Horizontal axle with two 0.5mm thick “spring steel wires” replaces the standard gimbaled bearing, allowing fine azimuth adjustment while eliminating horizontal play. Vertical bearing is hardened tool steel, precision ground to a backlash-free fit with a needle roller bearing. It is extremely precise, maintenance free, and never requiring adjustment.
