When Flips go Bad

Pat and I were flying out at the park with a water tower in my new neighborhood. We'd just gotten done showing off for a bunch of kids and I was wrapping up the night with my last battery. I tried to do a front-flip but broke it off to early and wound up nearly inverted. I tried to correct, poorly, and wound up pointed straight at the ground. Not wanting to veer out into the road and/or sidewalk trying to recover, I let disarmed the quadcopter and let it crash to the ground. I broke an arm on my frame and the force of that break stripped two of the motor's wires off the base of the motor. The good news is we had it fixed within an hour after the crash. The better news is that I've got so much other footage, it was way easier to make a video out of my only crash.
