Crashed my Rush Legacy into a lake this morning. It's unretrievable and total loss. I have a whole spare kit to rebuild with extra parts and canoes, but I'm not going to

Pretty disheartening loosing everything like that , at least a bad crash on the ground there are always something that will still be good but a fly away or into deep water it is all gone. Hope that after a little time has passed you start to assemble the spare kit. I sold my stretch and I am building a new one from parts for myself. I am putting the Evo battery tray system into the legacy to save some weight, make battery swaps easier and stop the straps from getting cut on the lower frame lip. well that is the plan anyways, we shall see. Sorry about the heli andTake care

That really really sucks. I wish there was a way you could get it back. Really disheartening I imagine. Electronics might be hooped but I bet the airframe and blades are good.

I would get a mask, water proof light and if need be a tank and retrieve it

Very sorry to hear about it

i've got more parts than I will probably ever use and havent had time to fly in at least 5-6 months
it is very sad

How deep do think it is? Scuba guys like challenges, maybe post it at a local scuba shop with a 20.00 reward?
