June 2006 - Crashed!

Total flights logged: 151

This helicopter was maintenance-free over its four years of flying. The crash was down to disorientation on my part and, having priced the spare parts required to repair it at over £200, I opted instead to salvage the motor, speed controller, receiver, servos and gyro, and move on to the next project.
