Well today marks the day I had what can be considered a crash, although mild.
I lost my lift due to wind, so I gave some throttle. The stick was feeling like it was a full power. Then I realized my thumb did not have much contact with the gimbal. During the last seconds; since it felt at full stick, I lowered the throttle just a touch. Just as I did that the wind robbed me of lift and I had touch down, hard impact. She landed on the skids, thank god. So I hit TH removed my fingers off the sticks and I look, barely 3/4 throttle.
Now the moment of truth. Any exi, HK or any other cheap clone would need every normal part plus tail output shaft to fix. Mine so far is a screw for the main gear and tail blades. If the feathering shaft is done I already have one from the original package.

Boom looks straight.

There may have been another issue I did not see but I think it was all me and some wind. Not much wind but wind none the less.
