Both aerials damaged. Drilling and pinning will probably make these good.

Worse part, is a broken gearbox final drive. Not a clue about this part. May be some emails to Dominique, at RC Tanks. DE. Or ask at a local company if a new one can be turned up? The shock absorber is also damaged.

You don’t get wiser as you get older. You just run out of stupid things to do.
