Urgent: JR X9303 Aileron Gimbel Wire Chafing Issue.

[Ah Clem]

I just spotted this on Flying Giants and RCU. I have no personal experience with the issue, but posted it from a safety standpoint (and I am a JR/Spektrum diehard) as I have not seen it here yet:

Thank you to the members of FG and RCU for bringing this to our attention.

Mine is REALLY bad.

Due to your warning in FG, I have checked my DSX9 (our X9303).
Mine is fine, but you can easily see how this can happen.

Mine was just starting to show signs of wear. I did the fix as per the JR service bulletin; will check it often.
