Default RE: blade clack?

I did fly mine out of an upside down situation. I had a tree twig stuck through the skids on one side, hanging upside down over a river maybe 50 -60 feet up. The blades weren't stuck, so I goosed it and pulled loose from the stuck skid (leaving the skid in the tree) and I had a heli upside down heading for the river. I instantly killed the throttle, then snapped the right and left sticks froward fully. When it's right side up, that maneuver causes an inversion and it lands on its rotors upside down. This time it inverted and righted itself. Talk about dumb luck!
