This looked like a fun forum, too bad I missed it. I would enjoy flight log reports.

If someone gets warned, they get blocked from posting according to the rules of behavior? Guess I better use a speel cheeckerrrr from now on.

It's an anonymous chat forum.
Why are you investing so much emotion to the point of a warning???

Why do you insist on knowing something not likely to ever be substantiated?

Do you have to be [proven] right all the time?

You told the moderator that and you didn't get banned, love it.

No, not the moderator.

Something has happened and the posts are out of order or something.

No Morgas you don't see what he was referring to as it was deleted .
Now you read #9 in our guidelines

Thanks dc for setting that straight.

Thanks for clearing that up and was trying to figure out because I didn't see any post numbers missing, thanks.

Ok, just finished my popcorn, IMO descent looks controlled, VRS ! I descend in S mode all the way down many times to a max outdoor temp of 29C (so far it just never got hotter here) never a problem my bird seams to max out the rate of descent. Good aim for the medium by the way.

Not sure if he was aiming but a lot better than the concrete

Since you posted it as a survey question for what happened, here is a great video on what a VRS (Vortex Ring State) is, and what causes it. Can you post your flight logs, because the longer you don't the more it looks like your pilot error, and here is the video.

Thank you for the video, I never knew this existed. Well I knew about the prop wash but never knew how to get out of it.

Thank you
