What are the "must have" parts? What parts do you guys usually replace after crash?

Having not flown mine much yet, I can tell you that the SD version needs crown and tail gears in the spare parts box. People report lots of see saw failures.
Main shafts are always good to have.
Feathering shafts
A good crash will probably take out the main gear too.
Blades...

I have not stripped any gears but have damaged the tail blades, main blades, and screws that hold the main blade grips onto the spindle. These screws are a must have item. They bend if you just touch the main blades.

The only must haves are the bladegrip screws, order a few packets of them when ever you order anything else ;)
I have bent 1 tail shaft, bust up the links on the tail, and snapped the landing gear. I have also had 1 boom strike (totalled boom, blades ok!) and a couple of 306BB servos explode mid flight...

Guess I crash lightly :smokin:
