I have not checked here but lots of scale guys from another forum use these two sites for parts.

http://www.econobelt.com and www.qtcgears.com (http://www.qtcgears.com)

You might want to take a look to see if they have something that will work.

I too have one of these for a S-76 I'm working on. Had it in pod and boom config for shake down flights and had a gust of wind that knocked me sideways. Needless to say, down came the heli.

Not too bad, didn't even bend my flybar. However, the plastic joint is toast. I noticed when i bought it that the quality wasn't there for the money, but not many options out there.

I think I will make my own now using their's as a model because I don't want to pay $50 everytime I have a small crash.

That's what I found the plastic is too brittle. I am trying to find a machine shop that an duplicate it in alloy. The other option might be the one from the Thunder tiger Mini-titan 325e Cobra kit for 450 users. If you can get it as a spare. I have sent an email off to find out what the status is I will post here, when I get a reply.

Hi
Yep you can part number PV0907 but It looks just as plastic :)
I was thinking of F/G the unit for extra strength but I suppose it be best not to crash
