I think the smartest thing for me to do, is to just buy some new skids, and a new frame. Guess that's what i'll do, thanks.

And the next smartest thing is to find a local experienced pilot to help you. The danger here is that after replacing the frame, you could crash again because something wasn't set up right. The Genius is good in crashes but that doesn't mean it will survive every crash.

I have a hobby town USA about a half hour from me. I live in the city, so not many people have helicopters since there isn't much room or places to fly them. Would the HobbyTown most likely provide adequate support in a case such as this? They do sell model helicopters, planes, cars, etc. The problem is that they make me pay for any of their time, so before i try to speak to them, id rather know if its actually going to be useful.

1. Because he usually ships the same day and I get the parts the following day. 2. Rick will answer any questions you have. support@clubheli.com It's really nice to have someone with walkera parts so close. It's even better to get a live person on the phone when needed as opposed to other vender's who only offer contact through E-Mail. I am surprised he does not have any of the Blade Heli's as well! How are you doing with sorting out your issues with the Genius CP? Mine is down I need servo's. So this might be a good time to put a new frame on mine. Here is the link to my GCP with the C05 brushless & Oversky ESC upgrade. https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=415117 My landing gear was trashed so I put on the extreme skids. They work great and I have yet to break them on any heli I have put them on.

From what it sounds like you need to rebuild that bird.
Here is the link for skids: http://www.clubheli.com/Xtreme-Landi...3B_p_2738.html Here is the link for C05 motor: http://www.clubheli.com/CO5M-with-cu...OR_p_3990.html Here is the link for the ESC http://www.clubheli.com/MiniCPGenius...0A_p_3729.html If You do order these. Be sure to leave notes in the order for 9T pinion for GCP and 3 Pin round connector. I am not sure how much they are but you will need them. Everything else you can get here: http://www.clubheli.com/Walkera-Geni...ies_c_159.html Hope this helps you get a new start!

Here is what I suggest. You get a new frame and move everything over to it. Your receiver probably is fine. Just put that on the new frame. If you do the brushless upgrade you'll find the canopy fits on there better for some reason. This would be the best way of tuning her up If you think you need a new receiver just get a new bird.

You need the connecter so you can plug in directly to the ESC. It will be so much. Easier to solder the connected on the motor.

Damned smart phone.... Any way I was saying that the connector would be easier to solder then the esc. Depends on your soldering skills.

they were all out of stock on their motors with the connector. I bought a new tail, frame, skids, canopy, and 3 batteries. I'l probably purchase the upgrade kit from some Chinese sight. There selling for 43 bucks, and giving me more stuff. http://www.oomodel.com/walkera-geniu...29rh8q4dvqb7f2
Theres the link for the upgrade kit i'd like. |

The tail motor has given a lot of problems with getting ot to work. Read this thread before buying. https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=391591 But that is the best price I have seen for the Walkera upgrade kit! |

Also take a look at this http://www.wowhobbies.com/turboace41...r-43g-3-1.aspx
Expensive I know but if you are in a hurry it is in stock. But before you pull the trigger google it for reviews, I have no idea as to how good it is. |

@heliinternvention, I bought the skids and they arrive, but these instructions make absolutely no sense, and the helicopter dosent come apart without snapping most of the fram apart. If you could tell me how you managed to get this on, that'd be quite helpful.

https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=415117 The old skids need to be clipped off up at the frame. The front of the extreme skid strut needs to be slightly modified to allow the motor pinion gear room. It's is fairly easy and I have plenty of pictures in my thread. Maybe it will give you a better idea how the mod is made.
