        it doesnt look too bad mate... you will have that sorted with help on here in no time.

        Stuffed my 600NSP on Sunday.... it had a very bloody nose and so i had that sicky feeling that it was not all shiny like i polish it every time i come back from flying!!!!

        Instead it came home in..... tatters!

        The thing is, later on once you take a closer look (which you dont really want to do when you first put it in!!) it won't look so bad.

        Picked up the bits from the Hobby Hangar this afternoon and the NSP is looking good again. Just a few bits to finish off and i am there. Once its on the bench or table, back on its skids,with the broken parts removed all becomes clear and you get excited about getting it back to A1

        Thats my crash experience anyway

          really sorry to hear that callum ,that gut wrenching feeling is horrid and takes a while to get over it but with the generosity from chemicalbro and others you will be up and flying soon so chin up. almost made the same mistake myself on sunday with my 450 .i had a very busy week then got up very early to watch the f1 gp so i was quite tired i had changed the throttle curve and pitch settings to make it more responsive and holy crap it was only wish i was.

              Shame about the crash..

              Sorry but theres no way you should be flying that heli there..

              I'm pretty sure you're not insured. and you are flying way to close to the house's ect..
              a really bad idea one crash like that in someones garden and you'll know about it.

                  I would like to nominate car-killer for a EGS

                  Edders,

                  I will be speaking to a near by farmer to see if could fly on his land while im not at the club, and the Insurance WILL BE sorted by the end of the week, its just finding this club as its pretty much in a middle of a field so i shall ask a club memeber for directions :P

                  Regards

                    Sorry to see it mate, it chokes but just get her back in the air, I see the offers are in already and Eddie, I would like to second the nomination for an EGS for each of them. I love this place for it's members helping each other, when I first joined I thought it would just be advice. But no, I've seen things in the last couple of months that make me rethink my belief in human nature.

                      Sorry to see your crash but like most have said ... the first crash is always the worst and you get over it and rebuild .. I just laff when I crash now and rebuild hehe ...

                      I Do agree with Edders over where you where flying and your insurance ... If you hit anyone god forbid at least your insured , which everyone should have , EVEN !! if your flying elecs .. Better £28 a year than losing everything you own for the rest of your life if god forbid you hit anyone ...

                        Chin up!!

                        Did almost exactly the same with my Rappy 50 yesterday. Coming into land and rolled it into the ground. I'm still trying to recover it now LOL.

                        Dismantling it at the moment.

                        They always look worse and believe me, the Rappy is not too bad to repair in terms of cost.

                        Have a look at www.helibits.com for a crash kit and spares. They are good prices.

                        Cheers

                          Never good to see a model go in, but add one thing to your rebuild list.........a canopy. If you are going to be chucking it around like that with no canopy on, you will get disorientated

                            I'll undoubtedly get flamed for this but do the younger members that come on here with a tale of woe not have parents or a part time job to help fund their hobbies?
                            I'm just waiting for the post that asks us to donate £2.00 a month, just £2.00 to help all the under 18's that crash their heli's. I've just bought my son a 2nd hand 600 Nitro Pro and when he bins it, which he undoubtedly will, I expect to be having to dip my hand in my pocket to repair it. I don't expect him to be posting on here with a metaphoric begging bowl.

                              With all due respect no-one on this thread has asked or begged gramey so why post this.

                              I do agree about getting out and earning some money though, I had it to do when I was a kid.
