A potential customer dropped by yesterday and asked about how stable and maneuverable the x6 is.. so I said, lets head downstairs for a quick flight demo.. Here it is recorded using my iphone 3Gs (and Canon 1D Mark IV for photos)

Call that stable - it's all over the place. No wonder you crashed it recently. In particular, your tail trim needs adjusting. With that spin, you'll never take decent video.
OTOH...
That's great. Although I've moved on to free flight (where, paradoxically I am getting better hold vertically than with the barometric hold), I'm still flying tail in all the time (apart from the odd lapse when taking controlled 360s). You seem to have pretty good control over the X6. Good vid. ;D

Hahaha, you are kidding right? Anyway, this part of the demo was the maneuverability part! What can be so interesting about taking it to 50m and GPS lock it to one position and do a 360 degree spin. Which I did actually.. Then I brought it down a quick aerobatics show something I would never have dared to do six months ago, especially in tight space like that.. The X6 is perfectly trimmed btw.. its me using the both roll and yaw and inertia to spin it all over the place.

It's inspired me to practice more, seeing what you can do with it!! ;D

holy crap! I was thinking the same thing until I saw that he was just joking so I had to look at it again, the trim is fair on second look. Makes my up and down flying look like dinasauric movements. man you rock that thing!!!
