    Default Helicopter Accidents

    After attending a Army demonstration ( mainly for the kids), I was amazed by this helicopter (an old Huey i think) that was demonstrating. later went to a hobby store, to check the model Heli's out, pricing was around $2000 inc Heli and control, but what really turned me off was the accidents that have occurred. I just imagined that I would be sucking my thumb, hugging the teddy and swinging side to side if that happened to me. I think I will stay solely with woodwork. Here is the link of actual accidents from RC Helicopters

    Nasty!

    Grab a $30-$40 plastic model kit, build it, paint it, then make a nice wooden display case to house it in
    How much wood could the woodchuck chuck if the woodchuck could chuck wood?
