The story is.....This guy is leaving a voicemail for his boss when he witnesses a
minor traffic accident. Not fake, it actually happened.

yikes. reminds me of our races....

he had some engine problems on the take off and the plane behind him didn't see what was going on...
looks like something caught his hand good, lucky for him the wing is just higher than his head!
:surprised-041:

S~

Watched the second one first.  Yikes..   I think it might have made the first one even more dramatic to watch.   

  It reminds me of our race starts, too. 

At that awkward age where your brain has gone from " Probably shouldn't say that" to
"What the hell, let's see what happens"?  Me too.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Flight Testing of the S500 Airframe powered by DJi Naza M Lite V1 Flight Systems>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Flight Test 1; (Will it fly)FAILED (NO VIDEO)
Stable flight not achieved
Objective was not met due to flight instability which caused a hard landing that broke #2 prop.
Adjustment of Pitch/Roll/Yaw Gains required.
Pilots notes; Even though flight WAS achieved. Aircraft had VERY poor to no handling and was extremely unstable.

Flight Test 2; (FULL GPS Mode: Basic Hover / Flight Stability) PASS
Hover and improvement in Flight Stability met.
By increasing the Gain value on the Pitch/Roll aircraft became very stable and pilot was able to maintain stable hover.
Aircraft did show sign of GPS drift, but, should be rectified with further Gain adjustment.
Aircraft also demonstrated altitude drop when airframe was rotated(YAW) left or right.
Further Gain adjustment required.
Flight Test #2 Video;

Flight Test 3 (FULL GPS Mode, Flight control/Flight Stability testing). PASS
Aircraft demonstrated further improvements in both Handling as well as Stability.
GPS Lock and Hold has improved greatly by adjustments made in the Gain Settings of the Flight Controller.
Aircraft was able to hover with little to no deviation from flight course, even though there was a gusty cross wind.
Aircraft was able to demonstrate two clockwise and counter clockwise rotations WITHOUT altitude loss.
All controls were responsive and light to the touch.
Further Gain adjustments and flight testing recommended.

First Real Flight. Went great, but, the gimbal took a carp on me a 1/3 of the way in.
Oh, this is the highest Ive ever dared to take ANY of my UAV's. How high. No ideal. Should be lower than 400'.
My flight controller has a limit of 400'. I bet I was close.
I don't have a way of know for sure yet. That coming with the FPV system I'm going to install
