Default Setup, tracking, etc

Gents...thanks for your input. I think I may have overstated the bang. The broken blade was actually a cracked carbon fiber blade that occurred during the incident. The accident didn't actually cause enough stress on the main shaft to even pop a ball link, so my hope is that I did not bend it.

I taped one of the blades today and took a look at the tracking and it was on the money. I hovered the heli today with no problems. Maybe, I was still shaken after having experienced my first crash and that is what caused the instability of the hover.

I plan on a more significant test flight tomorrow at the field. Hopefully all will go well...again thanks for your input
