      No.... Its a good thing. I meant that my reflexes toward crash avoidance have improved so that I have only had one small incident in the last 35 days. ..... That's what I appreciate. :D

      I spoke too soon.
      I just flew my 3S pack.... No problem there, but then I got a wild hare and decided to try going inverted on 2S/2000rpm head speed. It worked well enough till I got off plane on the 3rd try and found out that what works at high head speed doesn't necessarily work at low head speed. I almost pulled it out, but wasn't quick enough. :p

      Oh boy...... Yes @crash must have been listening. Boom strikes suck to say the least. Its great that you have a kit of parts on hand! Headspeed is another variable i have eliminated. Im either flat out or zero. Hopefully you will have her flying again soon @Beaver....

      It might be a few days. I have to do some other routine maintenance on the thing.... Notched main bearings and such.

      I'm with you @smakmeharder governor set 3200 on or off nothing in between. I applaud you @Beaver flying inverted at only 2000 with a 450

      Yes Pilot error caused the crash! A slight nudge of the fingers one way or the other does wonders! Thank you for the sacrifice @Beaver, although the clone parts are not quite as filling as the name brands. muah ha ha ha....

      All parts are worth the same after you've touched them @crashheligod
