Never done this one myself but its pretty important to new people. .. (Never cut through both lipo wires at the same time)
now that'd wake somebody up..... I've hit live 110v romex i thought was off, really changes the shape of a cutter......
Never keep parts you ordered incorrectly because they might come in handy at a later stage. (Hands up who has a very large box of parts you may need at some stage)
thousands of dollars worth at this point, all crap
My best contribution would be never lock yourself into where your piloting from, use natural cover to protect yourself. anytime i go for a test flight at my house i get the dumpster strategicly placed between me and it.... Have had so many close calls and actual strikes that i tend to be very cautious in that respect. Another along the same line, never fly straight at yourself especially for long runs. I have seen almost all my failures after going out and upon arriving they either just quit responding to control input or would just lawn dart in......
i was standing on a porch where this thing went,,, got so lucky
Had a few clips like this and they all had me and my truck in frame. out of that whole friggin desert this thing tends to like dying upon arrivals.... can't tell you how many times i've ran for my truck to take cover in my life
