You ever have one of those flights where you just can't get the feel for what you are doing? LOL,,,it almost felt like I had the caffeine shakes. I just couldn't get a grip on it. It was like the heli was attacking me. Watch closely and turn up your volume at 3:14,,,,it goes by QUICK!!LOL
After calming down,,,the second flight was great,,I held a decent inverted hover for a minute and 1/2 and got some good tic/tocs in. But I didn't have the head-cam lined up and I missed it!!

A couple great recoveries there Randy, especially around 4.00. Any other day and she would have been toast!

Sweet flight though Randy, almost got that thing at a steady inverted hover. The 250 also hates the wind. I love to fly it, but damn, hate having to wait for the perfect conditions. |

Oh, I smell what you're stepping in Randy. After trying to fly that thing during a REALLY windy day, I decided to keep it up and only use it on those really calm ones.
