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!

> [@PitchFader](#): > > 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? ![image](https://d1q8cepst0v8xp.cloudfront.net/original/3X/5/a/5a3b9c34260dd25465d7bde9ff44df943b9c1788.png) ---

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. ---

> [@TheBinman](#): > > Welcome to the club @WoolySheep > > I’ve been awarded it _twice_ 😱 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! ---

> [@Ian5](#): > > Must have hit the battery pack? Mind, it was “only” 4 mph. 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! ---
