Started the repair process of the HK500. Its done but needs new swash washout control arms as the originals took so much energy they twisted.
Both of the washou arms are twisted.
Found this replacement pair at Amainhobbies for the 500x. Hope they fit.
I had to replace the tail shaft, main shaft, feathering shaft, tail control rod, the swash control arms, the washout arms and the main blades. Not bad at all. I think its time to replace tha canopy though... once again excited about flying helis again!
UPDATE: Went ahead and purchased a new canopy.
Pricing 5S batteries, again dismayed at the expense!
