You think like I do.... ;-)

From Buzzkill's experience, I'd add a see-saw to the list, they seem to break regularly.
Second, if you fly like I do, add a couple more main blades.
Third, In my cp days, I found it more efficient to buy a second bird, and used it for parts. Of course, in that case, I got a second radio set that I used to get a relative flying planks. ...sigh, he's to thick to fly heli's I'm afraid.

Thanks for the link to a new supplier, esp. that has stuff in stock!!!

Tail rotor blades done three sets so far they always seem to ground!,
My boom strike cost be a fin set as well as a pair of boom supports.
Screws that hold the blade holders on, come in packs of 10 I would get 2 packs.

Anything that you didn't order will be needed next :)
Minor crashes seem to take out the wooden blades (I no longer bother with the plastic ones as the wooden blades fly much smoother) and the main shaft. There always seems to be a slight bend it it introducing some vibration. The main shaft is more sturdy than say the Blade CP or CP Pro but it still usually gets a minor kink. Pick up some extra shaft collars as they strip out very easy. I few shaft changes and they will need to be replaced. One other item to pick up are flybar paddles. I broke one, admittingly in a pretty hard crash.

Your right!

I guess Paddles, tail blades, and collars, now if we can only get the K and B guy to make main blades and tail blades for us well be all set.
