For the most part, I've had good luck with generic flybacks. Often, a generic is all that's available. Companies love to discontinue original parts as fast as they can these days. I do remember changing the flyback in an RCA (CTC179 chassis) 36" set. It took the longest time to get the pins lined up on the cheap generic before it would go in the board. When I finally got it installed, the set played great for two hours that night. When I hit the power button the next morning; I heard a big BANG followed by smoke and a foul odor. You guessed it. That cheap generic flyback went up in smoke. I tracked down an RCA original and had no more problems.
If your flyback has controls on it for focus and screen; you will have to adjust those for a satisfactory image.
