Been there and done it, got a Flintston bandaid for my finger. [X(]
Yeah I had to ice down my forearm afterwards
One thing, though- you mentioned you forgot to turn off the tx. Please don't do that while the heli battery is still plugged in- the heli can spin up out of control if you do. The right order is unplug the battery from the heli, then turn off the tx, and reverse order turning things on. Basically, never have the battery plugged in on the heli if the tx isn't on.
Ya know - I should have read your post better before. So just turning off the tx isn't good enough to just transport it inside? So far I've seen no odd behavior with the CP when turning of the tx before the heli, but I haven't had it that long. So I should leave the tx on and pull the cover and unplug it first before turning off the tx?
