OK, here's one of my two crashes today, micro-sized crash with a micro Heli.
I met with Juza today in Espoo, his T-Rex 600 flies nicely, and my Pixy Zap loves getting bumped around by the wind.
Things were more or less under control, until a gust pushed it down and I think I lost sight of it for a second.
The heli was pretty fast, and grazed the ground, or some grass, with the tail. Both tail blade ball links came off, and once I had it slowed down at 5 or 10 m height, it started to spin...
OK, throttle hold, negative pitch, pulled up at the last moment, almost perfect autorotation as practised in the sim. Except the end, where it hit the ground like a rock (show me how to do autorotation with Pixy Zap and I'll buy you a beer ;D)
Well at least it didn't punch through the ice, that's something.
It came down at an angle, so the blades broke, but no other damage, and it flies again.
