I have never balanced props. Don't plan on it either

I was flying my P3 at the beach, a few hundred feet AGL when I was passed by a coast gaurd helicopter flying slightly below me and coming from behind. I did not see him until he had passed my quad. I don't know if he saw me. Made me nervous and highlights the need to maintain awareness of not...

Daytime video didn't load for me. Nighttime video was frickin awesome. Thanks for sharing
