    Default [How-To] Drill holes & install gyro tabs

    I wanted my odyssey gyro back on my s3 so that's what i did:

    1) bought a pair of flybikes removable gyro tabs



    2) made a sign on the frame with a marker



    i controlled the distances first and signing the center of the tubes was ok for me

    this way:


    3) drilled holes with a 2.5mm drill (with the same distance of the holes on gyro tabs obviously)



    4) tapped the holes with a 3Mx0.5 thread



    5) screwed in the tabs



    6) and voilą!




    sorry for my horrible english and the low pictures quality but i'm italian and the only thing i had with me was a crap camera phone. hope that helps anyways!

    Good how-to, this will probably be helpful for many people.

    If you center punch the holes it will keep the drill bit from wandering, and make drilling the holes a bunch easier. You should use a punch, but a phillips screwdriver will work.

    i think it either came with a straight cable or possibly a gryo plate instead of tabs?
