Just wondering what everyone has in their field boxes if they carry one? I usually keep complete SAE & Metric allen set, jewelers screwdriver set, a larger Multi-screwdriver, small tape measurer, small wirecutters , 6in pliers slip joint and needle nose, needle nose vise grips, pocket knife, colored painters tape(for blade tracking), servo tape, Q-Tips(for cleaning), zip-ties, velcro-ties, fuel tubing, silicone(RTV), tail rotors and gears, center hub and spindle, extra bearings and assorted screws washers and nuts, And of course CA GLUE

And a golf club. A #1 Wood is prefered. Sometimes I'm not a patient person. And when I've had enough . . . well . . . The spare parts are the one's left laying at my feet. The big part goes to a land far, far away. And the Lipo makes a contrail that's impressive, in its own way.

The safety glasses are a good idea. HA HA HA I want to whack mine with a golf club every once in awhile but I dont golf so I yell and scream. Then read theses forums to convince myself its the heli and not me.
