No big deal - you will have it up next week. Parts for the V2 are easier to find now - just look around. I have crashed my V2 a few times now (why am I bragging about that?).

I see you've got the tail servo mounted on the right side of the boom. I had mine like that as well until the flybar paddle got hold of it in a crash. My tail servo is now mounted on the LEFT side and the top of the servo is below the top level of the tail boom so that the flybar will (hopefully) hit the tail boom and not the servo. I also have my gyro mounted under the frame for the same reason.

Oh the humanity!
Please tell me your not using those stock fibre main blades, they bite so bad.
The 325 Pro's are cheap and superior in every way.
