I was hovering my heli in the front yard today, my gf came up behind me and tried scaring me.
It worked and i ended up flying straight into a tree!, if i was hovering nose in it would of flowing right at us and would of probably hurt alot!
$140 in crash damage, and 9-12 hours of my life spent trying to get everything to work right again.

Dang that sucks you should show her how people can get hurt around them. Let her read the warnings of the manual and take a highlighter to the injury or death statement that's what I did with my better half.

blades, tail blades, tail boom, main shaft, main gear, front drive gear, torque tube, canopy, feathering shaft, link rods, tail drive gear,
Took in real time
4-6 hours re-building it
2-3 hours taking it apart and redoing a couple of things that arnt right
2-3 hours setting everything back up (sub trim, test flights, pitch, gain, figureing out stuff thats causing it not to fly properly etc)
Mind sharing some of those ways? :P
