Re: Death by R/C Helicopter.

why would the government let a deadly toy like that on the market? if its not the owner that would get hurt, any miscalculation of the owner could hurt others
The same can be said for just about ANYTHING you buy now. Bicycles, trampolines, pools, frisbees, BB guns, cars, etc... Anything can be dangerous.

Re: Death by R/C Helicopter.

This is why I haven't upgraded past the micro helicopters. What a shitty way to get taken out

As an avid pursuer of all things RC, this one made me cringe. Saw the news story on noobtube, and did some digging, was eventually able to find a photo of the damage those blades caused.

INFO - .

Original story -
Damn he got chopped up.
The irony of it all...
This happened at 'Gravesend' Brooklyn?

The same could be said for a baseball... or a bicycle... or a frisbee... or a bazillion other toys that are used safely the vast majority of the time.

Life's rough, get a helmet.
