Fun but scary! Thrown out over the river and luckily recovered! Plus one crash left me about a foot away from the waters edge!

02-Aug-2017, 05:53 AM Fun but scary! Thrown out over the river and luckily recovered! Plus one crash left me about a foot away from the waters edge! 02-Aug-2017, 10:29 AM So many butt clench moments! Sometimes people talk about the rush of this hobby... well I am sure your heart was going fast on that last one! "wait, no please no pleeeeease!" would be what I'd say. carl.vegas Current Quads: Operational: Diatone GT2 200 In need of repair: Bumble Bee, tehStein, Slightly modified Vortex 250 02-Aug-2017, 12:52 PM Nice recovery! and great video. Makes me want to get out there and try some proxy flying, unfortunately the weather in my part of Aus isn't very flight friendly at the moment. 02-Aug-2017, 01:32 PM Around 3 minutes, I was thinking "what - no tree trunk crashes?". Then Boom! - two in a row 02-Aug-2017, 02:42 PM (02-Aug-2017, 10:29 AM)Carl.Vegas Wrote: So many butt clench moments! Sure was! After that initial gasp for air my daughter says confidently... "It's in the water daddy." Only words in my head were "NO NO NO NO NO NO!" Definitely had Lady Luck with me that day. (02-Aug-2017, 12:52 PM)Snuffypot11 Wrote: Nice recovery! and great video. Thank you very much Snuffy! Hopefully it clears up some for you. Fingers crossed. Prox is a blast! It teaches you a lot of control and how to stay calm on the sticks. (in my opinion) Just bring as many extra parts as you can carry. Especially props lol. (02-Aug-2017, 01:32 PM)sloscotty Wrote: Around 3 minutes, I was thinking "what - no tree trunk crashes?".
