Default Quick swash separation

was flying my pro 50 today, 2nd tank of fuel in the machine total. Brought it back to a 12 inch hover and all of the sudden the heli dropped out of the sky. Wrapped up all the washout linkage around the main shaft. Upon further inspection I found the the swash plate had separated. Does any one make an upgrade 120 degree swash for the Quick 50. I'm looking for something that will work and stay together. The stock one seems to be real JUNK!!! After looking at this swash, there seems to be no way of securing the swash together. Poor engineering. Has anyone else had trouble with this, uh thing.

I guess I should be grateful nobody was hurt and there was only minimal damage.
