[QUOTE="twickers14, post: 120350, member: 13017"] Very good advice re the battery strap over water. I was flying here over the Severn Estuary at Severn Beach a couple of years ago and the battery suddenly popped off at about 100ft. Luckily it was relatively close to shore and the tide was out (but it’s one of the biggest tide changes in the world here-12mtrs I think) so it is very muddy. Long story short battery lost but Spark heli-hovered down close enough to the rocky bank for me to fish her out with a specially adapted contraption-window cleaner pole plus metal coat hanger, and then spend the next 4 hours getting her washed and dried. Still flying happily and safely with strap today! I was very lucky. [/QUOTE]
