FPV Helicopter autorotation attempt
Trying to get som viewers for my lousy FPV vid. Set of for a small castle in the southern part of sweden. T-Rex with 1.2 GHz video tx. Made two initial turns over the property to get oriented. Suddenly lost motor power. Dont know if it was battery, esc or motor failure. Happened to me once before. Tried to autorotate the helicopter. Gained control again but tried to pull up too early. Very hard to estimate your height above ground when using FPV and videogoggles.
