I'd just like to say that I do not believe the iBOT malfunctioned when it when down my porch steps. I believe it was 100% user error. On top of that, I was very impressed that the iBOT did not tip over, and was in no way damaged.
I'd also like to say that although my wrist still hurts at times, I would take my iBOT and a wrist that hurts for the rest of my life over a painfree wrist and no iBOT.

Ouch! I'm glad you're OK and that the iBOT survived its flight. I have always thought these things were sophisticated enough that they should be able to fly.
I haven't been spending much time at the computer lately. Sorry it took me so long to see your post. Again, I'm just so glad you're OK.

Thanks Nancy. I'm glad too!
I don't know if this helps explain your incident but I have noticed that the iBOT, if it is momentarily impeded in its forward motion, seems to "leap" ahead when the obstacle is overcome. Maybe it builds "steam".
I took the iBOT on a road trip this weekend to Lincoln Nebraska and then to Des Moines. It was great to have the balance and 4-Wheel Drive functions at the art festival in Des Moines climbing curbs and touring the sculpture display. The balance function drew a lot of stares.
Good luck.
