sucks to hear you know you've crashed a raptor good if you've done decent frame damage those new blades just make it sting a little worse.

I stuffed my 50 in January this year when a lipo died and my 90 in February when the Align 2in1 packed up, so I feel your pain man!

At least then in July, I crashed the 50 through pilot error rather than component failure
Still costs a pile of cash though

I did a similar crash with my Rappy , I looked around for a couple months then found an awesome deal on a whole pile of parts, fixed the entire heli for$75 less blades!!!! Put it aside and start looking, lots of deals out there.
