With apologies for the awful wobble.  There's not actually that much vibration, it's just a really badly affected camera - need to get an 808 #16 to attach.

Not great flying here, with a prop coming loose as a locking nut decided to unlock, and then a near crash.  I'm still not quite sure how I managed to crash - which is annoying.  Despite being able to see my yaw leg when I needed to correct, I just couldn't tell where it was - it's like if you put the tricopter at a certain angle, and optical illusion is created and you can't tell up from down.

The footage tells me, that it was nearest me - as I though it should be, though the tri had possibly drifted slightly around to the right.  Next time I'll just have to trust it's facing broadly the same way as I flew it.
