Default Whoops - Broken it again!

After a particuarly hard landing (read Crash!) I have managed to break my main frame - Just behind where the battery / Canopy mounting rod is.

I glued it back with CA but it just breaks off again - Anybody else had this & have a fiendish bodge to fix it?

I had the same problem, except I broke mine right before the rod for the canopy where the last set of holes for the radio tray is. I got a scrap piece of CF, and CA'd it underneath to reinforced the joint, it's stronger than ever.

Here's a pic of my repair. I have the MIA gear fitted as well, and the piece of CF was sanded down and fit perfectly between the gap left by the bracing.
