      And she will fly again just not as quick as usual

                £400 not including canopy or blades so thats officially my worst crash
                Not really sure what happened but id had 4 good flight before the crash.
                All i did was flip it inverted and it just had a spaz and exploded.
                This hobby has its ups and downs and today was definately a down.

                I am so sorry for your loss I really feel your pain

                been there , done that, seen the movie, & got a subscription

                All I can do is send you a HUG

                        Yeah, this is the worst situation. I had a bad crash over the summer and I have tried to play it over and over in my mind and I still don't know exactly what happened (and every other crash I know without any doubt how and why it happened).

                        I think the thing that's so disheartening is that when you get a heli flying really well, in a way it becomes greater than the sum of its parts. But when a bad crash like that happens suddenly it's just a pile of parts again.

                                Know how you feel. It's so frustrating when you can't find the real cause. It makes you wary of doing anything with the model when it's been rebuilt.
