Lol.....it ain't like I was trying to hit the curb...
Something wigged out while I was adjusting the throttle trim. It just took off full throttle (with a 5700kv motor) across the parking lot and met its fate...(picture below)

.........
I did email them with what happened. I even went heavy (real heavy) on the sob story.
They told me they looked around and couldn't find a spare and the stuff gets sent to them already packaged.

.........
I'm looking at it from my stand point....I have 2 gold pans and 1 worlds than I hooked up with the jc goodies....All within a couple months.
That's 6 carbon fiber shock towers...3 carbon tranny n 3 brattery braces...3 sets of bell cranks....3 sets of titanium turnbuckles ... 3 sets of wing tubes....3 sets of nose braces....2 honeycomb motor plates etc....
That's a lot of money...One set of turnbuckles alone is close to 50 bucks.
That's over 500 bucks of jc stuff on 3 cars...
After all that, all I need is one nut and I gotta spend 30 bucks for a whole new set to replace it? It can rub you the wrong way....
...I spent too much already. (Not that I'm complaining about that....It's just a lot of money).

A pic of the carnage .....That's some nice carnage...lol
When's the last time you've seen an rc10 front end looking like this...
