Hey guys, its summer Im getting back into the flying sport. Anyway, I broke my lower head. What happened was the thing that the wing goes on broke off. Also, I broke my transmitter antenna. Do you think I should buy an aluminum head this time? Also, how hard is it to replace a lower head?

I assume you are talking about the CX or CX2. If you think you will break that part again go for the aluminum. You need to take the lowest gear off so you can take the innershaft out. You don't need to take the upper blades or the flybar off. Then you need to pull the upper bearing support off. Then with the lower blades off, take the four black screws out of the lower head. Then you can pull the lower head off the outer shaft.

yeahs its a time consuming process.. Ive gone out and bought the plastic. I seriously dont think the 21 dollars is worth it. Plus, Im about to move up to a CP or 400. What do you recommend?

I would recommend the B400. At first it will be a lot more intimidating than the CP, but it will be able to handle the wind a lot better and the tail will hold better than a tail motor can.
