did L2B without mini missing a beat. Driving back to work today and mini just dies, charge light on. 30 secs later she fires again and I make it to work. Gotta love temperamental classic car ownership!

Mine randomly kept cutting out while driving, turned out I had put a cable through the bulk head without a gromit and it had just cut through it and was shorting out haha, worth a check :p

A couple of guys in our club made their own but the same thing happened. They got bored of them quickly. They have both admitted that it was more fun to build them than it is to fly them.

I was more thinking from a photography/videography point of view - I've recently seen a short video of Southend comprising of a load of cool aerial panning shots using one. I saw the quadcopter at Crystal Palace and the footage from it and it looks great! So much video/photography I could do with one of those!

Yeah, we are planning to use it for photography and video, not purely fun

cracking L2B yesterday, despite timing everything badly with the traffic. Nothing fell off and I came back with all my coolant. Happy days!

I'm stunned by the one piece exhaust I had to take off - it's huuuge...and only held on with 3 rubbers! I've got more on the mini! Awesome quality.

Recently worked on a 320 touring. The flexi in the exhaust had gone. And i know exactly what you mean. This was held on by i think 2 rubber doughnuts and that was it
