Last action from my ergo

Till today,my princess have served me well for 8 months....it was on 8/9/99(Singapore's birthday) when i decide to invert my ergo for the second time....i held inverted for at least 30 secs and i did a roll later....however,it was 50m high up so i decend it....but it went down and never came up....and whats worse?? before she hit the ground,she flipped to the side...ouch..

this was the "package" i received a few minutes later ....

er princess....i have to take out your canopy,this might hurt a little

shit i even bent the lower main frames....look at the main blades...it was cut into half  and all my landing skids(with wheels) were destroyed....

heres another view....look at the main mast and flybar........... it will tell u how bad the crash was.even the windshield(left) was broken

heres the main part of my ergo..look at the lower frames,it was bent and thus breaking the fuel tank as well,the quiet Hatori muffler was also flattened...as the landing was on the right side of the heli,the throttle linkage flew out and thus leaving my engine at full power which in turn over-rev the engine melting the conrod and sending the metal chips up the piston/clyinder ,as i say the muffler was flattened,it broke my crankcase as well....the engine was 80% destroyed..IF i were to salvage from the engine,this is what i left....crankshaft,2 bearing,whole carb,heat sink head and engine back plate....therefore the carb is for sale as a sparepart....Now the engineer at work LOL

all the parts scattered around to seperate the good and bad remaindings....

Believe or not this is the best i can do to salvage from my wrecked ergo....only about 20% from the whole heli without the electronics      the servos and receiver were fine....upon checking my gyro,i found there was a crack!!!!!!!!!! damn....now i had a autopsy report on the frequent crash part

The boom was a straight cut...it was cut into half leaving the belt to suspend....
The flybar was bent to a J......cool huh....more like trouble
The mainmast was bent to a (     when i took it to let walter see it....guess what he say?? your blade flew out during flight?? he asked         NO was the answer....
Now the spindle...suprisingly it was just a little bent but as usual this S$2 piece have to be replaced
The tail output was also badly bent about 10 degrees off.....
