In this series of photos, it showed a TSK Mystar 60 EMS hovering with a sunset background. The scene in real was more breath taking than these photos. Glad to see Ming's TSK revived from series of bad spell.

The above
photos showed a Chinese character that meant "Death",
and was assembled through the use of broken blades from crashes!
This was to worship the gone souls of crashed helicopters, and to
commemorate the single day that we had the most crashes at a
field. There were seven set of blades from different crashes.
Note that all broken blades here were FRP (Even with one set of
NHP carbon in its first flight!), and were freshly harvested from
crashes in two hours!![]()

| Before (Note the one on the back) | After (just about 30 minute after the "Before" photo) |
The
"Before" photo showed two nice looking TSK Mystars. The
one on the back was a TSK Mystar 60V2, under 10 flight, with new
canopy, new K&S muffler and NHP carbons on their maiden
flight. (The canopy and the muffler were the first and only one
at the time of the photo in Hong Kong) The "After"
photo was the remain of the Mystar 60V2, after hovering for about
2 minutes there was a frequency jam and the Mystar locked up
itself and ended its life full throttled on to a rock. Gone were
all the bell and whistles, and came the tears of owner Mr. Jim
Ming.:(![]()
Here is a photo of the remains of a TSK Mystar 46, crashed into the sea, recovered 45 minutes later, and left untouched in a garage for two months. Everything was rusted, except the stainless steel screws that the owner used.
