Yikes!

I am not a wobbly wing flyer so I am not able to describe the word perfect event, however is there a critical hover height and speed that if you get caught in it the sinking air from the rotor wash reflected of the ground comes over the top of the blades.....like your own little wind rotor and down ya go?

Would be hard to recover from.....
