Requirement of Spares 800 Xxtreme

[faisalmalik]

Hi everyone
My logo 800 kit is arriving shortly. Needed to know generally what parts are to be ordered which should be readily available in case of a minor accident. Although seriously crashing a machine this big requires a big cache of parts, but the guys having experience of minor crashes may kindly share their views on the topic.

Regards

I would say dun bother stocking parts. More importantly at each mishap, check carefully to ensure all that need to be replaced gets procured.

I would say save money on the spares, and get a neo with rescue.

When I got an ikon with that, my crashing almost stopped and then I was stuck with a huge spares collection I'm having trouble selling (for my logo 600).

There is always something that u need but dun have.

No way of predicting what you'll need.

Short of a spare kit , it's hard to tell.

At 13 ish lbs RTF , depending on how hard you go in , it's not pretty.

My last one was about $1400. I was inverted doing a slow pass by when the trans gears melted. Inverted auto style landing.

Big ticket was the YGE esc , stock mounting with tabs causes them to break off. Once broken the esc isn't worth repairing. $400+ right there.
I've since mounted it differently in hopes the mainboard wont break. Of course all bets are off when you crash.
