I wish you'd reconsider, and I'm not suggesting that you spend any time at all editing the video. Just plain old raw footage would be really helpful. I'd like to hear the motors which could support your theory that there was a flyaway. It might also support the theory that the prop nut came loose and the shaft began to spin inside the prop,causing a loss of lift at the corner.

You want more fuel for the fire huh. OK, I'm obviously not that smart, so here you go. It's an unlisted link to the flyaway footage. No narration, single camera, no graphics except for intro and copyright.
Have at it.
I have been constantly under attack since I put this up first nearly 2 weeks ago. I know the prop nut was tight. No amount of my trying to convince anyone it was has worked so far.
The problem with the internet is it allows people to be completely unaccountable for their words. When I made the video, I thought I was doing something helpful. The attacks have just got me down to the point that I won't do any more on this subject. I'll PM someone who needs help, or who I think I can help. I'll ask a question about something, but clearly, me trying to demonstrate what happened just upset people.

18 pages, 260 messages - most of them crapping on me. Read the threads here. Some of the people actually needed to follow me here to make the same comments. I have some 30 attacks that came personally through a pm, and email. I had to disable the comments on that YouTube Page because they were coming there too.
If you don't have to look someone in the eye face to face, I've learned that anything can be said on line. RC Groups are full of hatemongers and bullies. I hope the moderator here does not allow the same to happen here.
So, like I said earlier, OK, pilot error. My fault. Select one of the options below
1. Newbie who didn't know what he was doing
2. Idiot who flew too close to a building
3. Idiot who flew with powerlines in sight
4. Idiot who didn't do a proper pre-flight
5. Idiot who didn't tighten his props
6. Idiot who didn't build his own, so he shouldn't be flying in the first place
7. Idiot who thought DJI was a good manufacturer
8. Idiot who trusted NAZA controller
Pick the one you like the best. I'm fine with it.
DJI doesn't care. They didn't even respond to my email. I've purchased 2 of these. so I've spent $1500 just on DJI product, never mind the 2 gopros, gimbals, and the new radio I just bought. All in, I think I have about $4K.
To all those who helped me sort this out. To those that provided helpful advice, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks and gratitude. It was great. I appreciate the support I got, and I do agree that hopefully a better radio will solve the problem.
