Hi everyone! After reading all about this incident and everyone else's thoughts. I think that everyone is missing the bigger picture. This guy who had this accident was probably in this sport for fun and was trying to keep competitive in the economies climate may only be able to afford lipos/parts etc from abroad and may I say the far east make some rather outstanding bits of kit. But back to the point, which is. He set out on a budget for fun but everything in and around the EU has become rediculisly expensive. I started this sport about 6 months ago and have almost given it up as it's stupid how much some of the parts costs. If it keeps going that way then more and more people are gonna buy imported goods.
It's only a hobby and supposed to be a fun day not about cost. Safety does and should come first but until the so called better companies drop their prices then expect more little incidents in the future.
Ok rant over
