So the trigger got broken off my FS GT2E. My wife would say it's cos the garage is a mess but I maintain it happened in the lounge.

Anyway, checked Banggood where I bought it and they have nothing. Is there a source for Flysky spares?

I can ask the local FB pages if anyone has a broken one and take the trigger, or buy a GT3C and use the rx

Why of course, such unfortunate occurrences must be met with a happy expenditure.  Any surplus will be a cause for more merry investments.  (the other option is to spend a $1 for a tube of superglue. Such inadequate remedies won't last long and don't bring as much joy--only hardened fingerprints)  Oh, a 3rd option: such calamities could be rectified by a 3D printer!!  It certainly is logical (Vulcan approved... but not wife-proof; for those young members who are not married long, Vulcan logic NEVER works with women. No men ever succeeded).

Anyway, you know the edict; "when in doubt buy first" (and deal with the consequences later)"  

I think I decided to bake to appease Mrs. Consequences.  She even commands now; "Farm boy, bake me a bagel!"  Well, that doesn't sound too hard.  As~ you~ wish~  (tumble tumble tumble...)

I should have added, I showed her the part and she said 'the chance of glue working is slim to none' and I agree.

I like your spend now and worry about it later logic. I 'need' another TS120 ESC for my sons Ae B6D which i didn't buy since I swapped it for my RB6.6. But I boguht MY Ae B6D on the basis I would sell my RB6.6. But I sold my Lazer which covered my Ae, but then I was supposed to sell that to part fund my new HB 418. Anyway, his B6D is running a TBLE-02S with a 13.5T trackstar motor and thermals all the time running in our backyard on 2S. And the TS50 in his HB 413 thermals all the time too (or it could be the motor since I rangi'ed a fan onto the TS50) so I pretty much need a new TS120. But then i also need another ESC for my Boomerang (which could be the TBLE-02S from his B6D) so should also get a HW1060 while I'm spending first right? I have also had some wines (NZ time, not breakfast wines) which makes it easier to buy now too.

Also, I tried baking cookies but it doesn't really work. And cook most of the time too, so that doesn't work. So just have to buy and hope.

Oh wait, Flysky parts, yeah guess I should get the GT3C and tell her it was Juggulars fault.

Sounds like you need one of these

if you look closely it comes with a spare wheel incase of any future mishaps. Seems logical to me 😉

How much wine/brave are you feeling?
 

 

That makes a lot of sense, I broke the trigger on the FS unit but I didn't even consider the wheel which clearly is just as important.

I was well brave (wined) last night, and also doubled my money playing poker (friends are doing weekly poker zoom sessions) so could justify it as using the winnings. It was a USD5 buyin though, so the USD4.86 I gained probably won't cover it
