I got started last xmas with the S107 coaxial helicopters was amazed with the stability and low cost. That experience lead me to the LadyBird which I'm on my 3rd one and 10th replacement body. As I was learning on this platform I ordered a custom Armattan 369 and have a long way to go before I can handle that performance/power to do flips, but I enjoy the big quad. Recently I got the Spacewalker from WHSS and love the octocopter. I have been taking video with the 808#16 keychain camera and have plans to step up to a GoPro. A scratch build is in the works with a Aquacopter frame which is taking longer than expected because I cant stop flying the LadyBird and SpaceWalker! Scott

Great videos.
Did the tree do much damage??
Did you ever figure out why you couldn't bring your other quad down with Tx input? Was it due to the wind alone? It looked like the tree saved the quad.

Just a broken prop, and one plastic bolt stud that the landing gear slides onto ($3 total) I figure that the camera/wire shifted the CG and I did not compensate for it (should have moved the battery pack forward) so it naturally drifted away in that direction of the heavy side.
