Just a couple videos to show the progress just over 5 weeks of flying has brought. Semi-agressive forward flight and my FIRST LOOPS! I also hold inverted for a few seconds in the last video - right before my crash! lol. I lost which direction it was rolling on a pass and ended up correcting the wrong way. In turn, I drove it into the ground!

Enjoy!

Eh, lost which way it was rolling. Figured it was time to crash anyway :-P. I was at 16 consecutive flights without incident. Back to 0! Lol.

Actually not anymore than if you dropped it from 3 feet hovering lol. Snapped the tail boom clean off right behind the block, took a few teeth out of the main gear, main shaft and flybar. That's it. Couple links were bent, but that's an easy fix and surprisingly the blades and feathering shaft were fine!

That's the only thing bad about having one of those long streaks with no crashes, you just know a crash is comming any time.

Great flying though. You definately have a lot of natural talent for this. :worthy: I can't imagine what kind of skill you would have if you had started vety young like Justin Chi. Can't wait to see you fly at next years Funfly. Unfortunately I won't be able to make the one this month. You guys will have a great time I'm sure. Just be sure to take lots of pics and vids.

Totally dude. I can't wait to see everyone from the last funfly, but it'll be cool to meet even more people until then though!

Next year I likely won't be "flying around" persay, so much as flipping and bouncing lol
