I am pretty sure my head block got bent in my last big crash. Can anyone give me some ideas of how to check it for straightness to verify?

Head block... Are you sure it's not the main shaft sending what appears to be a head wobble? I've bent spindles, mains, links, blade grips arms, but... Never a head block

Wonder if it maybe the feathering shaft.

I replied on the other post before I saw this!!! "Take the blades off the main and tail. Take that button off. Spin the heli up and while looking directly down from above onto where the button hole is you will see if your head is off when it spins. If the shaft is ok then there is a problem with the head." P.S new parts do not mean they are ok! I bought about 10 flybars last year all were bent from different suppliers and it was not the packing fault. I'm FBL now thank God.
