Can this be fixed?
« on: August 15, 2010, 06:34:25 PM »
I traded for an 80's Dragonfly that has a problem.  The blades don't spin when the button is slid.  Also the whole assembly and rod pulls out of the chopper.  Is there any way to fix this thing?  I didn't see any screws to take out to get at the internal parts.

I'm thinking I'm out of luck.  But I still like it, it's in pretty good shape.

Turner, I don't believe you can open it without damaging it. The shell originally came preassembled. But who knows, I could be wrong, but maybe it's just the button that needs to be replaced.

I tried to Google this for you but all the hits are for selling the Dragonfly.  Good luck with the repair or just leave it as is if it is in great shape.

I have one that has a broken propeller so I would be willing to trade it to you.

Very kind of you guys!  That's ok, though, I wouldn't want you to do that Condor Knight.
