Default Funky Chicken- Protection for eyes ? Pic's ?

Hello,

I'm expecting my Funky Chicken in the mail today and going to build it tomorrow.

I heard that the folding propeller sometimes gets snagged on the eye's and you have to make some sort of wire protection ?

Has anyone done this, and can you post a picture of what you did ?

Thank you, my fellow Funky Chickens.

Trying to bum a smoke from your bird.

I'm getting one of these and painting it to look like a cartoon buzzard.

I've had two Funky Chickens, both with folding props, never had a problem with the eyes! If you want a great flying bird, try using the 5 turn 400 brushless motor frm Hobby Lobby with a 1000 mah 3 cell Li-Poly battery-----Mine flies like a "scalded Chicken" and can climb almost vertically!!!

Have fun!!
