Hi all, new to the forum and relatively new to RC flight. I had picked up a set of FPV goggles and camera as a package deal. Well, I was out at the flying field and decided to put the camera on top of a small quad I have using velcro. The angle of the camera was totally wrong once I took off and the wind caught the small quad making matters worse. I lost all orientation. By the time I cut power and removed the goggles, I had no idea where it was. The other gentleman at the field was working on his craft and didn't see where it went either. It took some time with both of us looking but the quad was eventually found. Lesson learned - have an observer and make sure they are watching. I am not blaming the other gentleman. I am totally at fault because I didn't communicate with him that I needed an observer. (After all, I knew what I was doing.)
