Chopperbill, Youre probably right about the gyro. I hear they cant take much abuse. I heard Litemachines is suppose to come out with a new and improved mechanical gyro which is supposed to give the electronic gyros a run for their money and will even work on the Coronas. You may be able to send the gyro back to the manufacturer or place of purchase to get it fixed or replaced and mabey at no charge. But then youll have the down time to wait in order to fly again. Mabey the next time try moving the gyro up to the forward section of the crutch where it most likely would have a better survival chance in case of a mishap. I know some people have difference preferences of placement but the gyro is probably going to be the most sensitive piece of equipment on your heli.
