He was going lower, lower lower and the ground jumped and caught it
Check out this picture the instant it was simply too low not to hit.
I think Mark has some video of it as well as several other Alan flights with one of Ray's Avant. He also got Ray's flights and Tyler's too. Can't wait to see the videos.

Very nice videos Mark.
Alan must be taking it easy with those 2 new birds of his. I have personally seen him do way better routines with his former Raptor 90SEs. Maybe cause he wasnt worried about crashing a Raptor??

Madman,
I agree it looks very tight. I like them tight. To me it just looks like a heavy flying heli (Synergy). Hard to say without flying it though. And maybe the fast servos on his Raptor made it respond faster.
And of course he (Alan) could fly a piece of plywood well.
