Kaos Great report!!... Besides just having something else that could go
wrong, I have stuck to hand pumps so far my first and only...

Yes, we all should "always" remember safety!! For a lot of us( if not all of
us) we do let it slip at times and thank goodness, for the most part we all
get by... But like our flights... If you play... It's not if... but when...

Keep you flt. gear up to par!!.. Check it regularly and before each flight..
They say... a good crash, means sending the receiver in for a check up..
Do we??... Do range checks, more/always so when new/repaired.. Double
nut all engine/props... Paint the prop's tips... After starting the engine, get
in back of the model... etc. etc. OK I'm done...

I was just reminded about safety at our field.. I tend to let the peanut gallory
get me in trouble at times... I was just making a slow/low up right flyby at
about three foot and close to me, just as the wing tips went by me someone
yells go inverted now... Well, next thing I know I'm rolling it over inverted
about a foot away from the pit/runway fence... Safety wise that's not a great
idea and or a smart thing to do.. So many things can go wrong at the wrong
time, But the biggest problem is getting someone hurt or.... Safety People!!
