Does anybody run some off brand recovery boards?

 

Not me!
Honestly, ought to reserve it for our OP!

 

@MattCowsmasher , but I can't remember the brand.

 

Damn this is crazy man!

Small world, turns out that my co-worker/boss has also flown that same helicopter. Really glad to hear you and your passengers made it out safe. Based on what I heard you have to be a badass to dodge all those power lines you did.

 

I do.

Same as @MattCowsmasher

 

Some Amazon off brand? How are they holding up? I'm thinking about picking some up to finally finish the bed rack and hang them on the side

 

I've pulled them out multiple times but only driven on them once with a neighbor's truck. They're doing fine.

 

Here’s what I’ve got, ran something similar in the past they worked good when I needed them but not the same quality as maxtrax but you can buy like 5 sets to their one, they don’t stack at tightly and they’ve gone up 10$ lol.
FLARESTAR Recovery Track,...

Oh, BTW, here are the COTA C&C posts - took 3 to do it! So you don't have to chase them down.

Dam windy and cold

 

I missed all the big stuff, all the poles, all the ones that were definitely electric, the cars on the street. In the end it was the small ones that hit high on the heli that flipped us.

Me too dude. I’m glad they’re ok. I hope they’re not scarred for life or anything. It will be months before the NTSB figures out what happened with the heli. I’m very curious about it and I’m already sick of waiting.

You got my number?

 

No I don’t pm inbound

 

@hoverlover glad you guys are ok!

Other note, finally thought if where to mount my rechargeable flashflashlight. Didn't wanna mount it next to my seat and didn't wanna put it in a storage bin. I didn't know this gap existed until last night. I haven't put it in yet, but what a great spot.

 

Just looking at those pics you can see the mess of power lines all over the place. Not an ideal place to land. Very impressive you came down with only minor injuries and didn't damage anything but the helo
