Lipo explosions!
A nice collection of lipo explosions. NEVER overcharge your batteries, and be especially careful using lipos.

RE: Lipo explosions!
I've been meaning to buy an E-Flite CCP with Li-Po, but....... I met a guy at the LHS, and his Li-Po copter caught on fire outside
of his house. I think he said that all of his other flights were indoors.
bozla, Was that pack connected to a charger, or a higher source of current?

RE: Lipo explosions!
Nice vid's, but remember that water will not put them out, neither will an ABC fire extinguisher. It is a flamible metal and needs to be put out with a type D fire extinguisher or let it burn itself to death. I (knock on wood) have been using lipos for a few years with only one baloon incident and no fires.
