don't worry, I already had PETA give the all clear on my helicopter stunt with Tigger (my cat).
She is actually, very docile and shown great interest in my helis. Even when I'm flying my TREX, she'll come running out and lay right at my feet to watch me fly (early on in my Heli training, she learned the safest place was at my feet!). Tigger see's the helis more of a backscratcher then a threat, as when the heli comes to a stop she'll run up and rub against the main blades for a quick scratch.... but only after I've disconnected the battery!
I've been working all day to try an rig a water drop to my helis to help with the fire storms here in So Cal. Seems like once again the state is on fire. It most places Fall means the leaves are changing, here they are burning...
Sad to say, a majority of the fires were arson....
My dog learned early on with the CP-Pro to stay behind the operator. She got swatted in the leg once when it was spooling down. No injuries to the dog or the heli, and it only took once and she got the lesson. She's a pretty smart girl.
