First post in what will hopefully be a short series, cataloging the more dramatic learnings of a QuadCopter rookie.
This was planned as the last flight of an excellent day near the beach, and turned out to be exactly that. The prop was clearly loose, but the increased load factor resulting from an over-confident pilot throwing the controls around, plus having just switched to the 'big' LiPo (4400mAh) didn't help.
Damage report: two bent legs (easily repaired), two cracked props (rear), one humbled driver (yes, there was an audience). I found the lost prop, undamaged.
