I almost had a ground crew catastrophe the other day. I was showing the heli to my buddy, just hovering around a bit. When I finished I landed, pulled the thottle all the way back and everything stopped spinning. I handed the tx over to my bud to hold onto (still on) while I picked up the heli to remove the canopy and disconnect the battery. That's when I heard something that sent chills up my spine. "So this is the throttle." he says. Just as I turn to see him reaching for the throttle, I quickly grabbed the heli by the skids and cleared the blades just in time. He had thought it was off since nothing was spinning, lol. You shoulda seen the looks on our faces when that thing started spinning up, rofl.[X(]

Well, I'm grounded for now, until tomorow. Waiting for the jb weld to dry on the tail motor terminals, and trying to figure out a servo alignment issue.
Just when I was getting to where I could fly around the yard a little too....[]
