Default My 700 bites the dust...
My T700 is dead with new Volts packs and all. Good thing is that the lower part tore off so I could pull the smoldering packs out of the heli before the whole wreck would catch on fire. This way I could save the electronics. I think its time for a re-kit

Thanks Night

This crash bugs me more than all past ones because... Stupid Hurts... My radio strap was a bit short and I decided to clip it off with the heli in flight. I accidentally pushed the collective down with my pinky finger and the heli exploded against the ground...

I feel sorry!!!

Last week I've made a terrible mistake as well. Changed the tail grips in the filed and didn't let the loctite to cure enough. Guess what - in pirouetes to the ground after 2 minutes flight! - tail rotor hub slipped from the tail shaft...

well on the bright side looks like your landing gear is still intact.

judging by the damage and the fact you have all your electronics, think it might be better or same price to just buy the chp res frams and all the bent shafts?

That's enough to make a grown man cry. That is ugly man! I'm not sure if I've seen a crash that bad.
