Got the new boom yesterday and compared it to the old one I repaired.
Amazing the shape is exactly the same. Not bad for guessing.
The holes line up perfectly.
So I will spray the old one, and keep it as a spare.

Cool. Nice job on that repair. Don't think I saw the follow up image after you got it done.

Bugger, I found a stripped screw in the tail pulley.
Need to buy a new pulley, all because of a stupid 5 cent stripped screw.

Found an issue with my blade tacking due to one Blade grip arm being very slightly bent from the crash.
Ordered a new set, next day delivery. Arrived this morning in tie to fly :D
Now shes running true as :)
Also bought what I consider to be the best upgrade out there.
Quick release canopy mounts. So easy to get the canopy on and off now :)
