Waay cool lamrob! It is one tough bird. I was in forward flight a few weeks back, lost orientation and dumped the heli on it's side in the grass while it was flying back to me from 40 or so feet out ( turned left when I shoulda' turned right) and much to my surprise, no damage was done. ( I did manage to kill the throttle just before the loud "thump" into the soft grassy ground.)
