Well Sydney has had HUGE surf these last few days but along with that high winds. Today the wind subsided and seas abated abit. Out flying I bravely went. Off the point seas 3-4 mtrs and my T/O altitude about 5-6meters ASL. Got some great pics of the surfers and then a massive set came through........
I see white water on the ipad and push left stick max climb. For a split second I think Im safe, then flashes IMU compass error fail on the screen.
Now all is black...I wait for 5 minutes looking at the skies
All I can assume is that the white water disorientated the internal compass/imu and thats all she said...On the upside I forgot to load my SD card but lost a freewell ND16/PL
NOw to try to convince my wife to let me buy a new one...
RIP ?????????????????????
