Default I"M GETTIN DEPRESSED

I got my 425 almost rebuilt after a good hard landing, just to find it's got a real bad wobble to it.
tried to track it down and the only thing I could find was a badly bent flybar.
Well it turns out, I have just about every available spare EXCEPT a flybar.

So I had to order a couple which wont be here till next week sometime.
So much for getting it back in the air as soon as possible.
Is this frustrating or what ?????????????/

Sorry to hear about your down time Rich. That is why I usually try to keep some "normal crash parts" on hand. I don't go crazy with keeping lots of parts, but, I do try to always have a spare tail boom, belt, blades, fly bar, spindle and main shaft, links, and some gears as those are usually the parts that get damaged in a minor to moderate crash, as well as the landing gear.

the X5 flybars are a direct drop in, and they are stronger/stiffer too

actually alot of parts are compatible between the two
