Yea,I just got up 1 hour ago and my head is killing me cause i got way too much sleep(14hrs) lol.I looked at everything real good and the main shaft got bent,stripped a servo and cooked the blades.I have a few e-sky servos lying around and i replaced the main shaft last night lol.Im putting 2 of my 1/8 nitro trucks on e-bay and useing all the money i get from them for extra parts.

LOL,I see your on line all ready.I really was up all night flying.The wife ordered out cause i didnt want to go anywhere so i can keep recharging the battery.Everytime the battery started to die I let everything cool off and put it right back on the charger.What are you doing this week end?Im thing of going to Larrys to get a set of cheep but a little better than stock servos to put in it for now intill i get the money for the 401.I know you need to finish yours but if i get the servo and theres a place to fly in your area i do have 2 helis and someone can fly the 400 if they want.
