Here is a picture of a very rough support I made to replace the plastic canopy on the DF. After 3 crashes, I can say it works! I had planned on making a cross support, but using just one works fine. The plastic wrape underneath is the method I use to save damage in a crash. It too is rough, but works nevertheless.

Also, there is a listing on Ebay for 8 rotor blades that are twice the thickness of DF standard blades. I bought the set last week and can say that are so brittle that they break about twice as easy as the standard ones. I did let the seller know by the way. To me, they were a waste of $24.00, I got two flights out them. Just a note in case others may want to try them.
