I had a Blade MCX and then a Blade MSR both smaller helis by E Flite and when I got comfortable with them I moved up to a Blade SR. I bought the SR the day they arrived at the hobby shop. We went to the back room where the carpet track is and I was feeling good. My buddy at the shop got it all ready and test flew it and said here you go and 2 min later is when things went terribly wrong.
There is something about owning a 3D heli and having it upside down the first min you own it.
Well at this point I had a broken heli and no replacement parts to fix it. I walked into the office and told my friend that owns the shop "This ting must be defective" as I am standing there with the heli in one hand and broken parts in the other he just laughed and asked me how, you did not even barely have time to unpack it.
