Hello.

Just thought I would post a video of me flying the T-rex 700. I try to show off and end up with a pretty stupid crash! hehe

Enjoy:)

It looked like a pretty nice crash, but my experiance tells me that when you first take everything apart, it can be pretty expensive. hehe

Main blades
flybar
2 links
tail blades
tail boom
Maybe tail case
main shaft bearings

That's what I know for now. It may be more

I will replace the main shaft and feathering shaft, although I think they survived.

And the head button fell of. I will probably never get it to hold again before I change the hub. hehe

Thanks a lot:)

I know. But the HS wasn't the problem this time. I was trying to get the heli lower, and it just fell too fast. Once I was behind the snow, I couldn't see what to do to get out of there again. hehe

So I take all the blame:thumbup:

I was pretty close to hitting the big rock there. The snow was definately a better alternative:thumbup:

It was pretty nice that day. 5 degrees celcius which is the warmest temperature I have flown in for many months. hehe

Same here. Jamaica runs through the veins. Nothing below 50° for me. :...:

Sorry to see it go down Sondre but it was entertaining! Nice flying!
