      Not doing so could see you in A&E with parts lodged in your head.

      Money well spent!

      Thanks for that but... hehe.... a little to late
      despite the other recomendation I got earlier, I tried it, and yes... it crashed... and yes.. I now have to buy two parts instead of one...

      I feel very stupid, but I guess I had to learn it the hard way...

      Rules
      1: dont turn of your radio first
      2: listen to experienced pilots
      3: dont glue important parts
      4:dont trust your friends to fly your helicopter
      5:fly well clear of curtains (they get blown out and muller the heli) (FATMANTOM)

          6: Kids toys, major pile up with Thomas, the 4 year old was flying, father under the influence of alcohol again. Living rooms are dangerous!

              I flew mine over the top of my house today, It'll all end in tears!!

              P.S. I spent a few quid on buying the most usual parts to be broken- it makes sence to me not to have to wait for a £2 part to come in the post.

                  Wooohooo
                  Today I bought myself an extra battery and the best part is, it lasts much longer than the original one.

                  I have two questions tough. I managed to loose one of the weights in the flybar, so I replaced both of them with brass dura-collars.(tightened with screws to the bar) (lower pic) It seems ok now, but does any of you more experienced flyers (more than me, which is not very much at all ) have any objections to this?

                  And also, I have lost the back rotor (with frame), and I was wondering if this would have any noticeable aerodynamic consequenses?

                    i think the weight will be fine as will the tail. mine is currently flying with no tail at all, it completly snaped of and i dont want to spend my money to buy a new one . it still fly's great with no tail, if anything it is more responsive
