  • Nice Day Gone Bad

    First took 600nsp up for warm up then my new 250se so now Im ready to give 600 another good bashing & felt good for that, then as I refueled her noticed one end of flybar bent this has happen about 6 times now, when I went to straighted it it just snapped off right against the seasaw.
    Then took the 250se out for another flight then after couple mins lost all power 'esc burnt out' by looks of the heli may have only done skid legs.
    Now only having one other heli in motor was my 450 pro so here goes just into 2nd flight when all a sudden like it had no stick control almost manage to land her when she toppled enough to clip main blades before landing on her skids. only damage as I can see is blades & TT gears & may of done couple servo's, not sure of cause but reciever was blinking very erratic. That's what I'd call bad luck.
    Today's outlook is fine for flying.

    Sounds like you have had a bad day mate, we all have them sometimes, but at least the 600 didn't go in

      Damn

      Its annoying when you have several faliures in a day.

      With the 450pro I recomend using the black torque tubes as the tube should break rather than the gears which is an easyer repair and cheaper.
      I tested mine today and the tube broke as it should have done, gears are all ok.
