A few weeks ago, I put my TSA Infusion 600N Pro helicopter in pretty hard. It was about 50 feet off the ground, and going backward at about 35-40 mph when the right side cyclic servo failed. I tried to save it, but I didn`t have enough control to do it.
So I hit throttle hold and watched it go in.

It hit the ground really hard and bounced a couple of times, and I thought that I was going to have a re-kit on my hands. I was wrong about that..and once again, TSA has proven that they are one of the toughest RC helicopters on the market.

Although I did manage to break a frame on this crash, the damage was very minimal considering the force of the impact. Other than the frame, the only other damage to the airframe was: Tail boom, tail boom supports, torque tube, main blades, landing skid struts, and one main blade grip.

I had all the parts to repair it in stock, but I had to order a frame side. I have never seen a TSA frame break since I have been flying them, so I didn`t think I needed to stock them in my parts bag.

As soon as the frame gets here, I`ll put it back together and have it ready to fly again. I have also decided to change the power plant while its down. I will be pulling the OS50SX Hyper engine and Hatori SAB-50 pipe out of it, and replacing them with a YS60SR engine and a Hatori 60NS-3D (same as the SB-1) pipe.
