My Posts This: Topic Forum | Crashed mine real bad last Saturday. Was practicing my nose in when this happened:
While at a altitude of about 20' and about 20 yards out I was nosing in very slow. While nosing in I I came right in front of the sun. So now I lost sight of the bird i let off a little collective to bring it down a little. When it finally came in sight "holy crap it's inverted and falling." Aft cyclic to pull out of it I didn't get there fast enoght with the slow momentum. Well to make a long story short when it hit the ground it hit nose first while picking up speed. Destroying the canopy, skids, carbon fiber blades, feathering shaft. main shaft, main gear and battery. I now have my T-rex aluminum skids which are a little higher for the grass. I have align feathering shaft that I used 6 shims on each side, fits rock solid. I also have fiber glass 335mm blades on there that are wow. My 400 is now smoother than its ever been before. Oh I also bought some mystery 2200 mah lypos from: http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Tesla-R-C__W0QQ_armrsZ1 for only $43. These guys are in the US and they delivered in 3 days. If your wondering I got my 335mm fiberglass blades from www.Xheli.com for $4.00 holy cheap. They also have deals on Carbon Fibers.

. Haven't had any problems with any of the stock equipment. I've been trying to make it look scale when flying so I'm not pushing the stock servos and gyro very hard at all.
