    So ... i put in the mini p on the weekend.. HARD !

    Mini P 450 stretch , scorp motor, 6s

    Damage:

    Both frames, boom, main shaft, feathering shaft, tails shaft, tails hub, tail grips, tail blades and main blades , belt, snapped head bolt and main bolt, skids cracked, canopy cracked, main plastic support where the gyro mounts onto , one blade grip and bearings. Something chewed into the tail servo lead and one cyclic servo gear set is now a bit crunchy.. Lost the tail push rod thing that keeps it centered and also tail servo arm, as well as a link.. not to mention the boom supports metal ends are pretty bent.

    Good thing is i have all the spare parts.

    Why did it go in? A split second loss of orientation, Well.. I think.. It was %100 my fault, might have been a split second dumb thumb in there aswell.

    I must say i have the Lynx tail case on there and it took most of the force, it came out unharmed, the lynx stuff is STRONG !

    Not had a crash that bad for a long while..

      Wow, that's a serious stack, sounds like a re-kit... Good that you have the parts...

      Hopefully keeps @Crash HelGod at bay for years to come... lol.
