Was one of the tubes you changed the H-osc tube or damper? A weak osc tube WILL allow way too much current through the fly, lower HV and overheating. As others have said--you DO need to check the H-drive current level now--to make SURE it is under 220 MA. Cool fly tire and core or NOT...you NEED to KNOW.
Yes. I had one Damper crap out on me, so I've switched it. Same thing for the H-Osc tube. I swapped it as well.

I'm going to tug the chassis out tomorrow and add in the two needed wires and the cap so I can check the current. I want to make sure it's below 220 so I can baby this fly. I ran the set again for a few minutes, and it's stable and very bright.

I'm gonna get together with Electronic M soon hopefully, and I think we can hammer out the last of the sets issues and make it work fully again.
