Flying indoors

[trevorjustice]

Tried to fly indoors today. Not easy to do.

Phantoms were made to fly outdoors

This is going to end badly.....take it outside to its natural habitat....

I wouldn't say I "flew" mine indoors. More like hovered it in the family room for a minute. The wind blew the rug away and shook the table lamps. "Flight of the Valerie's" ran through my head. Not recommended.

Actually give it to me and I'll wreck it for you, outside of course.

Don't wait for summer! I'm in northern Ontario and fly mine down to -18 or so.

All that happened to me is defoliation of a bunch of flowers - the room looked quite romantic with petals everywhere

Was the bird still ok? If not its an expensive flower arrangement

The bird was fine, I didnt hit the flowers, just flew nearby - the flowers were almost ready to go to pasture anyway so it was just a good laugh luckily.

Excellent, lucky escape

From my Introduction:
"1) Don't listen to your wife/husband/GF/BF/significant other/partner when they come up with the bright idea of launching it in the home office "to see what the cat will do". Destroyed the first set of blades when it drifted while trying to land and then inverted. Panic throttle....tried to shutdown normally, but was inverted so that just made it jump around....finally got my wits and did the ole emergency shutdown to save human life. Blades didn't break but the friction on the commercial tiles melted the polyester to the blades so I pitched them. Really pleased that it came with 2 sets...."
