250 crash

[nothinbetr2do]

hi all. i was flying my 250 just fine in my back yard. got to the second batt pack and that's when things went wrong. i guess my depth perception got away from me, and i flew into a tree. it was hard to tell what was going on, but i managed to fly it out. and kinda auto landed. here's the damage so far

sorry to hear about your crash, hope you get it back in the air soon

That sucks man. I've flown into trees nose first and it sucks. Hope you get it going soon

Heck, i do one of those a week =)

Usually start out with best intentions of flying slowly and working on orientations etc but a few paks in and I am attempting to break speed records and trying things well beyond my abilities.

Guess that's why I find the 250 a great little heli. A crash is repaired cheaply and quickly - not like when I crash my 500, now a crash on that really costs...

thanks guys. after i got to checking it out, it turns out not to be to bad. i broke a landing skid strut and bent a tube, broken batt mount, bent feathering shaft, pulled out a tail boom support, and alittle scuff on the canopy. i have all the parts to get it flying again, i just need to get it done.
