? This is not really a flight video per se; Its a bit vlog-ish. I set out to work on "gentle" control but I Kamikazied the floor a bit ? and ultimately broke my RP-SMA pigtail. Presented are some repair logistics and continuation of my Saga. ? all the things ? in the description ? ℹ multiply (adverb) [ˈməl-tə-plē] : in a multiple manner : in several ways ℹ subdued (adjective) [səb-ˈdyüd] : lacking in vitality, intensity, or strength ? I figured i'd test the freebie Gemfan 5045BN Indestructible's i had from an order. The lower pitch definitely helped with control, but bent just as easily as the 5152. After two crashes added to the quad's history, my RP-SMA pigtail was damaged, so i couldn't progress well in my flying that day. I ordered a pair of pigtails which took 12 days to receive with free shipping ?. Upon fixing, I set out to fly my HQ 5.1x5.1, but was surprised to witness my FPV-Cam power-down on pack #1. In total distrust, I spent the remaining 4 packs in stable-mode L.O.S. which was a total waste of a rare good-weather day. I ended up using tweezers to squeeze the JST metal connectors tighter and hope to test the fix soon, climate (and goggle) permitting. This is 3 days of video over a couple weeks span. ↪ 0:00 Control and total loss of control. ↪ 2:03 VTX pigtail no good . ↪ 2:10 Repairs. ↪ 3:17 Test flight. ↪ 4:30 Mid-Air FPV-Cam power-loss. ?
