I was doing so well…
First time flying with 50 or so minutes with no crashes, then 10 minutes into my 3rd battery swap and I got too close!

Is your head drone ok

I was pleasantly surprised how it recovered (drone, not head) & no damage was caused (head not drone). I was so proud of my flying up to that point!

I never saw that image on the screen @milkmanchris , maybe because I had a concussion at the time. Is it normal to have spots in your vision that go from black to white every few seconds?

I have a 15 year old daughter. I am used to random abuse (both physical and verbal). Doesn’t phase me much these days…

@WoolySheep this is a clear contender for the voluntary Plonker Badge, if you’d like to accept it?

No, that would be my heart!

I would be honoured to accept such an award. I will dedicate it to all who try to be smart by doing things they aren’t quite ready to do, but give it a go anyway.

Must have hit the battery pack? Mind, it was “only” 4 mph.
Why thank you, I feel ‘honoured’ to be joining this rather exclusive list of people.
Ouch, watched both of your videos. Bet they were sore for a while!
I see both you and @JoeC have it twice. I am not going to say “challenge accepted”, more “I wonder how long it will take me…”
P.S. Even though I was only able to fly the Avata 2 in our back car park so didn’t get much speed, oh boy I love it! Such a great thill. When I flew @milkmanchris 's Avata 2 at the BM it was fun, but I was scared that I might crash it, so didn’t zoom it around much. I can’t wait for this Saturday and the Chesterfield Bando meet so I can have a ‘proper’ go at it. I will be bringing my Mini 5 Pro & the Mantis claw to recover the Avata 2 when I ditch it somewhere!

Sadly no, was directly on my head. I was more worried it might rip some of my hear out. I don’t have much of that left, so need every follicle to say in place!

Fully appreciate that, but there is still a cost if it took any damage.
You should have put the caption “You’re one of us now…”
