Maiden flight drop down shaft failure on 600 size Roban Huey.

damn man looked really nice too... what was it, the gyro kill itself mid flight? Hopefully you get it all sorted out

Thanks man! There is a 5mm drop shaft that goes to the gear that powers the torque tube shaft for raised tail. It broke in flight. 😬

That’s a shame it’s a nice looking model. Hope you rebuilt it

I absolutely hate it when a crash 💥 happens and the camera guy looks away.🚫🫵🏽 like why.

[@Gmackrcplanes]

100% of the time every time haha

[@scotabot7826]

Only thing it was missing was the slap, slap, slap of the rotor blade.

[@Gmackrcplanes]

I agree!

[@tdmaker85]

aww man so sorry

[@Gmackrcplanes]

Thanks man I appreciate it

Ouch... so sad

[@Gmackrcplanes]

Was a sad day for sure! I ended up giving the fuse to a friend for free and he fixed it all up and turned it into a army Huey. Came out great

[@JohnVHRC]

So many roban issues out there, makes me not want to get one.

[@Gmackrcplanes]

I had poor experiences with their 600 size helis. Their 800 size I can say are much better quality mechanically.

[@Blahde]

Harsh mate. We've all been there though...Mostly.
Still, it wasn't pilot error, so no need to worry about your own flying!
Every cloud etc and so on.✝👍

[@Gmackrcplanes]

Thanks man!

[@Soryt]

Nightmare on the field 😢

[@Gmackrcplanes]

Agreed

[@hermankoji]

Tail failure. It’s your Heli mechanics. Most RC Heli failure cause by tail out of control, Gears probably busted. Also looks like tail heavy.

[@geovaniboothe1992]

So it stopped working mid flight?

[@geovaniboothe1992]

The damage forgivable
Call it a day fix it go out again that’s how it goes.

Looks like your rod end ball link failed
