Well, my opinion on repair or scrap it has been expressed by at least one previous poster.

Should you decide to repair this or any future Blade helicopter may I suggest hopmeup.com?

I finished it today - finally. I have been waiting for a month for the pitch gauge to come in. It came in and while I was adjusting the links for pitch, my elev servo bit it. Luckily my LHS had 1 in stock.

Anyways, set up the pitches today and flew her for the first time. It flies! Too much bird for me though. I was shitting my pants the whole time. I landed it safely (did this 3 times to make sure all was OK).

Now to put it up on eBay and hope for the best. I was thinking of keeping it but I will not be able to fly that with any confidence.
