    While flying my MINIP today i heard a strange sound coming from the helicopter. Just to be sure i thought i should land my chopper before something bad happens.. I just had one of those feelings which i am sure everyone can relate to.

    While landing the chopper it started to lean then suddenly it made a loud and sudden bang! The r otor head with blades still intact shot upward at flew up about 20M skyward. The blades then slowly descended - still spinning.

    The problem? The top jesus bolt had snapped and fell out during flight.... it was really funny to see.

      Since the blades ejected , I'd be interested to know how much damage resulted ?

      It was exactly like in the video posted by @utrinque except I had just touched the ground - still under full power... And @3dmick i think my minip is upset that I was looking at your 380. No damage would you believe @ArgyPak? Amazing..

      Yes well sometimes bad things happen but allways remember there is no need to "loose your head about it" (sorry bad joke)
