It is a sad irony that the only death in the UK caused by interference was a PCM model in its failsafe mode. There are a lot of related elements about the case, the main item was that the failsafe had not been programmed because the operator found it to be too difficult for him to program it, so by default it held everything at the last position and flew on at full throttle until it hit and killed an 11 year old boy who was standing in the pits. Had the failsafe been programmed, or had PPM been used, the model would still have crashed but in a different place, maybe safely, maybe not. Make a big note, failsafe can be faillethal if not used properly.
