Re: Crashed the Heli yesterday

I can take pictures of the totally disassembled heli with picts of the bent flybar that's wrapped around the head, the bent Center Plate that's bent, and the broken skid, but honestly that's about it. The canopy was still in 1 piece but cracked in like 500 spots, with paint chipped off, one of my blades stuck in the ground 3/4 of the way in and then broke off leaving only 1/4 left on the head (you couldn't get it out of the ground and was so close to being level with the ground anyways we just fixed it as if you were fixing a divot while playing golf.

I can't even blame Bobby, you should have seen the look on his face, he felt worste then I did, I felt compelled to make a point to keep telling him don't worry about it. (thought he was going to cry) But it didn't matter who was flying, him, me, someone else. If the switch was going to fail, there is no way of knowing, or being able to do anything about it, so why get upset.

Now if he crashed doing some crazy aerobatics and lost orientation and put it in then ya, but not over something like this.

I mean besides Heli crash's are awesome to see, if you want to look on the bright side of things!
