I've been trying to capture a gator on video for sometime now and  yesterday it finally happend. I was out testing some hard stops and  trying to knock the mini out of the air but with no luck I cruised over  to the pond and luck would have it a baby 4' gator was hanging out. I shall call him Bruce, checkout his reaction to the mini.

Very cool video and photo!

Cracking video! This is where drones come into their own for spotting things and capturing images from a different view. Well done!

That'd be my luck normally. Having tried to cause the mini to fall in the same flight, Only to get as close as 6' to the water moments later wasn't the smartest thing to do. I took my time with it and tried to remain at distance but that thought did cross my mind at least twice.

I'm still flying with 1.03, I would like to rule that out as a possible factor. If it develops the drop then we can rule out fw. With the increased pitch I'm sure my mini is quickly approaching the same fate as many. TBD I guess.
