    ;)Only obvious damage was one prop broke it’s end off. I had to fly to AZ, so I wasn’t able to test it or the camera. I was pretty lucky!! Thanks!

    That makes sense to me. Thanks, My stickers came in for my controller, which should help (some..) till I get this down.

    I promise you, I would have held it till the battery died. LOL! It landed upside down, so it was easy to grab. Other times I have used the hand catch before, when the grass was too tall.. Mostly because I didn't want to land near the concrete or barn. (pic below.)
