RE: The latest in EDF
Yeah, it's almost approaching something half as hazardous as our toasters and iPhone/computer charger outlets at home that we use 50 times a day! At the end of the day driving to and from the flight field is probably the most dangerous thing we do in our lives. So as long as we are as, or more careful than that activity, we should all die of natural causes such as a grueling drawn out sickness... or maybe car crashes after dismemberment and failed resuscitation. Or quick and spectacular, RCU headline grabbing death by EDF, if we are lucky. So we got that to look forward to. Which is nice. Ha ha. But in all seriousness, yes. Who approaches a turbine jet with out a clue and some level of respect and learned experience? This indeed is serious big boy toy action, though it is not uncharted territory to experienced modelers. It took a lot of careful, well intentioned operational experience overt the years by the jet community to convince most AMA modelers and leaders that RC jets were not the devil itself wearing a fiberglass shell.
