Is this boom to far gone?

JezUK1 · 07-16-2009, 05:57 PM

Unfortunately yesterday while having loads of fun flying around my stock battery decided to die halfway through a normal flying time. I have not really practice autos as such and came down pretty hard. But to be honest it could have been a lot worse.

The blades are fantastic but the fly bar was bent and my tail boom has a dent in it. This is where my question lies. I would imagine the blades must have struck the boom on the hard landing. Going by the picture which I have uploaded will I need to replace the boom or do you think I can get away with it? I'm just thinking of saving money... I do have a spare one but was wondering if I can get away without breaking into a new pack? Your thoughts please guys and girls.
