Default cheap LMH canopy

If your ruining your great looking canopy while learning to fly like I do, make a crashable / dispossible one out of a 2 liter bottle.

I believe that the skids are from helihobby. I have a set and it is nice to be able to re-charge batteries without removing canopy as well as being able to balance the heli better. Be advised, that since my corona has an aluminum crutch vice a wooden crutch, the skid mounts are somewhat different so you have to improvise the mounting of them. Great idea on the disposable canopy.

Thanks guys. If anyone makes one out of a tinted 2 liter, post it. I'd like to see how one looks with tinted windows.

Well I've crashed it a few times, and only chipped the paint a little. So a touch up on the paint and some stripes.
This forum needs some traffic anyway.
