I was out having a great day flying my X650 today. I just finished the 2nd battery and was doing some typical GPS hold tests, all of which worked perfectly. When I landed, I very nice older gentleman came up and was very interested in the whole setup. I spent 30 or so minutes showing him the whole setup, talking about RC (he had been flying for years even rc jets), and had a great time. When he finally had to leave, I figured I was going to load one more battery and call it a day. I loaded the 3rd battery into the quad and I was practicing some high speed flying in ATT mode. Everything was going great and this baby was cooking. I finally had everything dialed in. So on a fast pass, there was someone walking by with a dog, so I flipped the TX into what I thought was GPS mode..........wrong way! I accidently flipped into manual mode. Never imagined that the X650 was an aerobatic machine! It did two flips! Then decided it would land for me at a high rate of speed. My beautiful quad did the compression dance and now I need some carbon fiber tubing! 
I guess it could have been a whole lot worse! I hit on some very thick lawn at the park. The hard part is going to be waiting on parts........ Regards, TJ
