Having fun with my honeybee2

Ok I shouldn't but I am.

While flying indoors, I hit a table and took a chunk of wood out of my main blades. (about an inch by 1/2 inch) The heli flew terribly after that because of the unbalanced condition.

Soon after, I hit the doorframe and took a similar sized piece out of the other blade. Now it flies pretty good beacuse both blades are once again roughly balanced.

I can't help but laugh. I think I need a new main shaft now but it won't be as expensive as fixing my Raptor 50 after the last crash.

So the question is: how short can the blades get before I need a new set?
