    Field 1 - T Rex 600 0, doh!

    Stupidly let my 600 get a bit far away from me today and lost orientation resulting in my first stack since going solo. Net result was my trusty card took a hit to the tune of £117.00 on the way home to replace the broken parts. Still look on the bright side they said, you'll have some spares for the next one as several of the items came in two's!
    Worst part was I'd just put a brand new pair of Align carbon tail blades on this morning before going out and sod's law said that amongst the items broken would be these.

    Crashing sucks....FACT

    Don't let it knock your confidence, get it repaired and get flying again.
    Sods law dictates, you buy something shiney and new(your new tail blades) and put them on, you just seem to break them.

    S*** happens,
    I know it;s hard but we've all been there.

    Enjoy the highs, and try not to let the lows get to you.

    Flying helis is one of the greatest thrills you will ever get, it's the lows kicking you in the arse you have to put behind you.

    Put it back together and enjoy.

    WE all sympathise with you(only our credit card companies enjoy this)

          Another word for a new canopy at our club is 'Ground magnet'.
          I think this goes for new blades too!
