To Fix or replace my MG

[SpektrumAndrew]

I have a MG that is only about 6-7 weeks old and the first time I ran her with 2S Lipos the antenna came out of the mount and into the prop. Smack! it broke the flex sheft and damaged the propeller. I noticed "spider web" cracks in the hull right behind the prop mount and on the transom. Damn must have been alot of force to do that. Are the cracks an issue? should I scrap this thing and use it for parts and buy another one? What to do?

Post some pics, it's probably fine.

O.K. Here is a pic of the damage right underneath the transom next to the stuffing tube. Is it salvageable? Do I need to seal the damage or is it no big deal?

I would CAREFULLY wick some thin ca in the cracks to "re-laminate" any slight delamination of the fiberglass......then I would mask the area somewhat larger than just the cracks and do a few coats of rattle can clear over it.

Thats not minor damage but very repairable.

Any recommendations as to how?

I'm still up to using it for spare parts and buying another one.
