    Flew my 230 s today ,only had it a few weeks so I'm learning the basics, was feeling great , just practicing lazy eights getting them smoother was the aim, then I let it get far too high and rather than just letting it drop I tried to fly it down,( was thinking, your getting better , no need to panic ..) then my house jumped out of nowhere and swiped my heli with its roof. Bad house . Broken skid and split canopy. So not to bad.
    As a serial crasher of a 230s i can recommend the Blade SR canopy. Much tougher. You just need to move the canopy mounts. It's about the same price. I also think the orange one is easier to see with it's orange nose.

    Trex 450L Dominator (flown six times crashed twice)
    Blade 230s (my hard working trainer)
    Blade CPS (for smashing into walls)
    Blade SR HUEY (too scared to fly at the moment, the 230s is going to end up in here)

    • I actually got through 8 batteries in 3 hours yesterday.
      That's the most I've flown in the last 4 months.

      Although I have become possessed.
      I can actually do Piro flips and backwards circuits now, an not stop stationary to try another maneuver.

      So feel like I'm actually getting somewhere

            • Hey Paul your TDR2 looks fantastic prob didn't mind the wind it's so quick. Total contrast I went out with a 550X tucked under a picnic the wife packed for a day at the coast. Major diversion on the way home and then I could honestly say ooh look we're passing the model field!

                            • 82? I am not even close mate!

                              You have a wonderful view. This makes great to sit on the sofa and enjoy a single malt whisky.
