It was me who said the IC board wil cost around RM50.. its quoted by my local store.. around RM40-50 include they pasang for u.
I changed my tail motor once, they didnt give me Align tail motor, but instead a WL or Wing toys tail motor replacement.. cost RM25. -..-"
I think i had that red light of death too.. it kept blinking and like stop recieving signals from time to time...
How did u manage to fix that? Thanks!
Added on June 10, 2012, 12:29 pmits really good for beginners, price wise and also the fly-ability.. moves quick and response is good, its durable in a way, but if u land at the wrong spot.. it will cost repairs.. because as u know the tail motor is quite vulnerable to crashes.. and heavy 'shock' during crash might also cause some connection at the PCB become loose.. so its very depending on the flyer and the seriousness of the crash.. otherwise the 911 is really a sweet flying machine indoor!
Me also. My hobby guy offered to fix my red light of death for Rm50. Change IC board.
Tail motor only costs US$3.99.
I'll post some photos.
As to how i fixed the IC board, i changed the crystal. Here are some photos.

This is the damaged crystal.

As you can see, the highlighted crystal extends from the PCB a very little bit. When you crash it, there's a chance that the crystal hits against the canopy and bang, it breaks. Also breaks due to vibration as reported by some on other forums.

This is after fix. I forgot to grab a photo before i lay the glue. This is a different type of crystal. Not the same as stock.

More glue to support the whole board. This itself reduces the vibration caused by the loose wires hitting against the canopy.

As for those who breaks their tail motor wires,
