Bad things happen... To all of us?
FINALLY... I got the thing to fly! After changing like my clutch bell, clutch shoe... umm and some other parts that I do not remember now... Anyways, I re-tuned the engine... does not get hot at all even after a half hour of flying, and get off pretty good... well, Got off pretty good... cause then I just had a crash. (oops, can I use that word here?)
It was similar to a normal landing... just without the style and all.
I am so embarassed...
Here is my list of what I gotta replace now:
1. Main Gear[X(] CA3019
2. Main Frame (L&R) CA3025/26
3. Tail Pitch link Set CA3065
4. Tail Boom CA3048
5. Tail Support Pipe CA3049
6. Tail Rod Guide CA3053
7. Horizontal Fin CA3058A
8. Tail Pulley Case (L&R) CA3056/57A
9. Body Mount CA3076
10. Main Rotor Blades CA3075
11. Stabilizer Bar CA3009
am I in trouble? again?
I have not topped the crash list, have I?

yeah Snappa, any part I see bend, I replace. One of the rods of the small blades on the main rotors is bend. I am gonna replace that too just in case. But the main body is going to be a pain in the butt.
