What happened, everything seems to go fine, smooth flying and everything?

I wish I could fly 24/7

That was a great video! Looked like it crash landed on a boat though, we never saw any water? Were you able to recover it?

belt-cp crash

It hit the rigging on the sailboat and then hit the water.The camera recorded for a second or two before it died.I ran home and got the scuba gear, it was sitting right side up on the bottom. I did have a broken tail belt, Esc shot, Lipo shot, camera shot,Sd card works great...I don't know if i lost power first or tail belt..It was pretty scary. The owner was on the saliboat at the time of the crash..He was a little upset.. after I found the heli, I checked his zinks and prop for him. I cut a lot of crab line of his shaft for him
that made him happy..I need to make some small floats for the camera mount. Cheers.... Joe

Heli crash!!

The camera is (was) a samsung S730 7.2mp $100 I don't think they will let me return it..The camera mount is made out of SS Welding (TIG) Wire..Flight times are 7min. I can build camera mounts for about $40.
Thanks for all the feedback.. Cheers Joe
