Dumb thumbed one this past weekend, figured you all would get a kick out of the crash :) Lost two servos but the rest of the electronics are in the process of getting moved to a 450-v2.

hellseige, Thanks for sharing that with us, It was beautiful right to the end with a close call at the 2:00 minute mark. Hope to see you at the some of the colorado fun flies, Chattfield, Parker, or the the Air Force Academy or Fort Collins ( Thats a 3-day).

Thanks guys, yeah I'll be at the AF funfly on the 18th - Won't have a 450 size going by then but I'll bring out the raptor 50 and hopefully the Lepton EX and 600n will be finished by then :)

ouch!! I have been there before. I noticed that the end your vid says to take it out of Idle up so throttle hold works....?

mine works no matter what mode I'm in.

Yeah it should have... I'm thinking it was because when it hit the receiver came unplugged least I think it did... since govenor was on via the ESC just kept motor runing till it ate itself. It's a weird one - but TH worked out to heli pad and didn't on impact :confused:
