    BUG saves the day

    3 mins into my third flight of the day today when the power decides to cut out, caught me a bit off guard but managed to auto it down ok. Upon checking the heli the positive wire from the ec5 on my ESC had desoldered itself.

    I'm sooooo grateful for my Scorpion back up guard, great little bits of kit and deffo saved me a few quid today.

    Great feeling to get home in one piece when it could have easily gone all pear shaped
