I was thinking the same as Lee when I saw that.
Nice though.
Graham if you want to lose some altitude quickly, put it into a bit of a dive, that way you aren't going through your own propwash and causing that instability as you descend. :)

No Lee:( its a disgrace. It was originally a shooting lodge used by King George. It was on a 99 year lease and the guy went bankrupt. Sitting rotting and the Landlords(my Landlords) dont give a shit. The guy whose DJI got lost looked at buying it. Re-wiring/repairs is estimated at £1M.

Oh to win the lottery:)

Weather rubbish again:( so decided to spool up in side. She flew with slight twitching but good. I landed and noticed rear right hand side motor stopped quicker than the rest. Felt it and it was really notchy and rough:(

Looks like a strip down and new motor today:)

That flight was really well done, Graham! Nice job! It looked much better than that previous video when you were venturing out over the trees towards the water, lol.

How do you think the motor got damaged?
Can you not just replace the bearings?
