first crash today :(

[Andy_Ran]

well it had to happen, had my first crash today took my 450 out

Heli started to spin round a bit quick (wind maybe) not sure, only had it up for about 20 seconds, almost landed it but in the process bent the boom, drive shaft, and stripped the gears to the tail oh and damaged a main blade

Bit down now as have had about 7 trouble free flights since I started.

Ordered all the bits which are not overly expensive so really happy about that. Just a short days flying for me

Pants.....

at least you had some flights, i smashed mine up without really getting it off the ground
dont get down, nature of the hobby as im finding out.
im acctually upgrading to a trex 600 nitro on good advice without ever really flown.. hey ho.. should be interesting.

[Andy_Ran]

Yeh it really is

I had a few really big smashes when i used to "fly"

At least i get good at fixing it LOL

[Andy_Ran]

just finshed stripping her down. Also done the main shaft

It looks odd in so many bits. Just waiting on Mr post man now then she will be back together for the weekend

Wait till you crash a 700N inverted,then youl meet my friend PAAAIIIINNNNN .,........crashing sucks though,although i think it gets easier to deal with the more you do it!.

[Andy_Ran]

that sounds painful!
Indeed a crash here or there will help get better too

Hey, that's what 450s are for innit ? Soil hardness test kits ! Well mine are anyway, but it's great getting 'em up and running again, keep the faith brother.

All part of the fun mr Ransley Get it fixed and back in the air! (ps indoor flying isn't on tomorrow!)

[Andy_Ran]

Almost glad its not on tomorrow as I am still waiting on the main shaft to arrive. I have all the other bits so will be ready tomorrow if the post man delivers the bit!

[Andy_Ran]

She is all fixed and ready to fly

Was about to head out side to give her a test, but its dark already

As everyone says it happens hope you get back up in the air soon
