    Yes again.  I wanted to fly backwards to video some rafters and got disoriented down the river.  As you can see I flew backwards into the tree.  I'm glad it stayed in the tree instead of falling into the water though.

    The only damage was one of the propellers broke a half inch of the tip off one blade.  I took some pliers and broke a piece off the other blade and was able to fly another battery.

    That was the first time in my life that I was on a raft in a river.
