Bell 222 RC Helicopter Roban 800 Scale 1 rough landing damage (read description)

Description: This heli has flown <6 times. I built, set up, and test flew it in my front yard exclusively. I took for granted the compact mech. assembly that shipped with the kit, and didn't disassemble /locktite /reassemble everything. While hovering at about 3-4 feet, I lost tail authority (4 screws holding the tail drive gear to the shaft backed out [pictured in the last image])and panicked. I wanted her on the ground before I could bury a rotor blade, and that's what I did. The result is illustrated in the photos. Had I had the retracts up, there likely would have been no damage. They were down though, and she sustained a some body damage and exposed where the retract bosses could be strengthened. I've been planning to make these repairs /mods, and get her back in the air for a couple of years now. But I just can't seem to find the time. I'm hoping to sell to someone who appreciates scale helis so I can finish my HeliBug gasser. This listing includes OMG servos (3 rotor, 1tail), Castle Creations 10a BEC, Castle Creations Phoenix Edge 120 HV ESC, and an iCON2 HD flybarless flight control. I had it setup on FrSky X8R x2 (full control of nav lights and such),. If buyer uses FrSky, I'll include an X8R receiver.
