Hey foke of FT
I have just crashed my tricopter et was blowing pretty hard and i was traning LOS figur 8 and i lost contol and the copter hit the Ground sidways and the tailboom snaped. Now im debating with my self weather i shoud rebuild the tailboom or buy David W carbon frame. I love my tricopter and the fackt i build it from scrap Wood but i wonder if i Would get better preformens out for Davids or rather Will it be easyer to fly then my owen build so i can lern and progress faster. Im starting to fly in figur 8s LOS and i do also fly FPV and that acuely seems easyer lots of PS gameplay i guess. But i want to get better at both and there for i was wondring if it Would be faster to lern on a "Pro" copter i have atatch some pic of my tri and the carnage :)

so . . . looks like you just broke a wooden 1/2" boom.

Unless it's hard to source those locally . . . or you're looking for an excuse to upgrade . . . I'm not seeing why swapping out that square dowel is that big of a deal.
