Re: Death by R/C Helicopter.
Based on what ive seen it was likely a trex, in the 700 size range. Carbon fiber blades on these mofos dont mess around. Added a pic of him holding the likely culprit. |

Re: Death by R/C Helicopter.
Ack for the double post, but the bottom pic shows a nitro version of the same model. His was likely electric. Cheers, ~TC |

 ) So chances are, he was running something similar in September when he met his demise.I've attached an image of the RC from the vid and here's the link to the product page at xheli.com. (I couldn't find the RC in Align's official e-store.) One thing for sure, the guy had some pretty impressive skills. It's a damn shame that something unfortunate and unforseen led to this fatal accident.  |

Re: Death by R/C Helicopter.
The teenager was an avid flier of remote control helicopters and was reportedly very good at it...  not really good at it if he fuckin killed himself... |

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
