by looking on the video you can see that he turned it on a 90 degree angel and the phantom flew towards the wall before trying to turn back to its GPS position.
Perhaps in the eyes of less intelligent people who generalise and lack critical thinking skills. I see far more videos of adults wreaking havoc with their Phantoms than I see kids like the kid in the video. The whole rational thinking ability doesn't develop for some as they come of age. Keep flying smart and don't worry about being seen as a bad pilot for what this guy did.He makes us young flyers look bad!
The force is strong in this one, I just had to subscribe to his youtube channel
I'm getting the popcorn ready right now...
Yea all name calling aside this video and his reaction are great!This is probably the funniest phantom related video I've ever seen
Why is everyone here so brutally judgemental? Im all for safe use etc.. Dont get me wrong.. But everyone is just relentless in their name calling and bullying. How many of you actually sent the kid a PM and explained the dangers? No it would be too much effort..Better just bully him from here. When I was his age I was doing far dumber things. Give it a rest.
We watching the same video? He pretty well had it pointed at the wall. A couple more feet and it would have recovered.The Phantom was never forced into a position where the props were on a vertical plane, it did that to itself.
It looks to me like he grabbed the compass.
Agreed. Here is my last comment to him on his YouTube video.:Don't be too hard on him, I've been chatting to him and he's a good kid. Look we've all done more stupid things at that age and even at the age we are at now. He's got a good sense of humour about it all including all the comments here
Edit: but he did say it was hard reading all these comments, he's learned his lesson and I told him to just get on with learning to fly and wow us with a cool vid. I for one am gonna stick up for him from now and I hope others will follow suit?
we're a community (albeit a piss taking one at times) after all and not a pack of bullying wolves, he's a member now
Yep I saw that earlier mate and fair playAgreed. Here is my last comment to him on his YouTube video.:
"OK, I'm gonna lighten up on you now. You seem to be totally aware of your mistake and fess up to it. I would like to see you join the Drone Forums where you can read the good and bad of whats going on. You will learn a lot as I have and have plenty of people to ask questions and lend you support. Good luck with the drone. I truly hope you did get away with only a broken prop."
