So ... i put in the mini p on the weekend.. HARD !

Mini P 450 stretch , scorp motor, 6s

Damage:

Both frames, boom, main shaft, feathering shaft, tails shaft, tails hub, tail grips, tail blades and main blades , belt, snapped head bolt and main bolt, skids cracked, canopy cracked, main plastic support where the gyro mounts onto , one blade grip and bearings. Something chewed into the tail servo lead and one cyclic servo gear set is now a bit crunchy.. Lost the tail push rod thing that keeps it centered and also tail servo arm, as well as a link.. not to mention the boom supports metal...
Looking for some guidance.

Put my TREX 500 PRO DFC in on the weekend and need a few bits. Main blades are one if them. So I thought why not try the Zeal blades. My question is around size.

The TREX manual states main blades to be 325mm and tail blades to be 70mm. Looking at a LHS web site the Zeals seem to come in length 330mm and 72mm respectively.

I am assuming that a 5mm and 2mm difference won't be a problem. The blades are quite a bit lighter (nearly half).

My questions for the HeliGods;
1. How do I understand the impact of blade length and weight on a setup?
2. How does the...

@RasHeliGod. Oh I mean @CrashHeliGod was the victor today in a hotly contested battle with my TREX 500 trying to recover from 2 dumb thumb inverted moves at only 2 moves high instead of 3.

Damage doest look too bad. Main Blades and Tail Boom and Torque Tube.

Thanks Crash.
What do you guys think. I currently fly electrics. Was thinking about Nitro. Just because, no other reason.

My question is should a person who is not that mechanically minded (motor wise) consider a Nitro heli?

What different skills and tools are required to build and maintain a nitro?
What are the pros and cons of Nitro vs Elec?

Interested in people's thoughts and experiences.
