G+_Joshua Delaughter Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Since we're on crash videos, this was my second crash. I'm still not sure what happened, but it survived with the exception of the props. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joshua Delaughter Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 I think I was trying to make it fly back toward the front of that house, but it just went down instead of forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Joshua Delaughter Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Morbid Media The AlienX quad from the show. The only difference was I swapped the KK flight controller with a Naze32? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joshua Delaughter Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Michael Heinz not sure, it's possible, but I think I had just taken it up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Michael Heinz Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Well, the reason I'm thinking about power is the quad stayed pretty stable until the very end - if you had lost a prop or similar you would have tumbled from much higher.

G+_Joshua Delaughter Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Michael Heinz I was standing in front of the house, and I was pressinf forward on the elevator, which should have made it come toward me, but when you see it flip I think is when I let off all the controls, and I guess that's when it flipped, but now that I'm watching it again, you don't hear the props way before that flip anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Eddie Hughes Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Which props are you using? I purchased some flexible 10" props to do aerial video and kept crashing and having nothing but trouble. I purchased a pair of 10" carbon fiber props and since they have little to no give I haven't had any issues. To me it seemed like the flexible props would flex way to much causing my 450 to crash...

G+_Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Was the Naze in Horizon Mode? -- It looks like controlled flight until the end. Then it looks like the Elevator control went full over and the FC went into Acro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
