You got to be quick on that throttle hold to avoid that chicken dance....:D
However they were some big hits, my first crash (after my 20th or so flight) cost me about 50 euro to repair. Was doing noise in landings when a hard landing caused giro cable to pop out, next take off had the spiraling out of control affect, but managed to land and avoid serious damage, new tail boom, blades, blade grip and O ring I think.
