Jake,

You need to be doing more checks before flying your heli's. It's an easy mistake to make, but if you take that approach with something bigger, it might end up with more than the heli getting damaged. It sounds like you were given some advice but didn't take it before flying (which is why I guess you have smashed your tail blades ??). Maybe a bit more patience is required?

Absolutely agree. If you're hoping to get your private pilot's licence, this is something you must overcome. Whilst I'm not a PPL myself, I'm sure those that are would agree that basic preflight checks are a must.

Using this logic now, on your helis, would I feel sure help with your checks becoming second nature on your real aircraft.

I know what you mean, but i did preflight checks! i always do! On a real aircraft, its just the same but if thats done wrong or not done at all you can loose your life and others! I know these helis can kill too...... Oh, did i make sure my wings are still on? (half way done the runway wondering why im not taking off) LOL
