There is no skill flying here, just the crashes. There were discussions regarding the durability of the Walksnail system on Facebook and Discord, so I started tracking my crashes. Tracking eventually became making a video, specifically this video. For this video, I compiled my bigger crashes from the 2023 summer. Note that most are missing the last few frames; that is what happens when the battery gets ejected in the crash! I also learned that after crashing in water, components need to be rinsed/washed with isopropyl alcohol. I suspect not rinsing the VTXs after being submerged led to me losing the two submerged to corrosion. They worked for a few months after, then started being glitchy and got to the point where I couldn’t fly with them. Both have been replaced. I have five quads with Walksnail VTXs; these waterlogged two are the only ones I replaced all summer. They were new at the beginning of the summer.
