A broken prop and the gimbal warning of death

No where near a repair shop so hopefully not too long out of the air.

What a bizarre Video ......are you or your buddy a moron ?! Rhetorical question.

Are you ******* kidding me with this ****? Another rhetorical question.

How long have you been flying the mavic before trying the impossible?

CC Rider · Feb 11, 2017

Apparently the runner zigged when he should have zagged.

Just one question: who was piloting the Mavic and who was running? Moe, Larry or Curly?

Funny. Dangerous, but funny. I love these "what not to do with you Mavic" videos. Hope all is well with your friend and ultimately the Mavic.

"I told my buddy to keep head down and sprint towards ...the blades spinning at 500rpm..." Run Forest, run.

Was this found footage from the sare crotch project?

Haha, yea my friend is fine, not sure why this is considered an impossible shot. I was only concerned about the trees and didn't even consider him running into it. These shots aren't too tough in tripod mode, but I did learn my lesson that I need to tell the subject when he hears the props to stop!

You might explain to him about these things we call cars too.

Yeah... won't fly backwards or sideways to avoid things coming at it unless you tell it it can... and even then, that sounds like a recipe for trouble.

Ow, ow, ow- that has to feel even worse than when I flew my Syma into the back of my own head.
