Dorked the Sport. As the saying goes "that's the way the copter cookie crumbles". It'll cost more to replace the blades than repair the heli though. It was flying sooooooooooooo nice today too.
the screw backed out on the rudder servo horn (who ever heard of putting loctite on a servo? ). Being quick on throttle hold, I walked away with minimal damage. Busted frame, skid mounts, base plate. Front canopy standoffs are bent pretty good, too.
Anyone have a plastic 3D canopy, or at least know the part number so I can order one from somewhere?
Im not Mr. Lebowski, YOU'RE Mr. Lebowski. I'm the Dood! So thats what you'll call me

I probably could repair it. It's got a pretty long rip on the other side of it, I suppose I could get a fiberglass repair kit or something.. If it'd anything like repairing a hole in the hull of a fiberglass boat, I should be ok.
