Freak occurrence lacerates man’s arm with rotors


Of course all things carry a certain risk of injury.  Heck, even playing in a university marching band is dangerous.  Don’t believe me, watch the infamous 1982 Big Game between Cal and Stanford (PWND at 0:38).
Anyway, here at effyountoys we want everyone to be safe when playing with RC toys.  While you can’t always prevent bad things from happening, you can prepare yourself for the eventuality of an injury.    While using RC planes or RC helicopters or RC trucks or RC cars or RC anything (you get the point), you should exercise a high degree of caution and have a first aid kit handy. 

Accidents don’t just happen to nubes, either.  Just this morning I read a story about two RC Heli pros who suffered pretty serious injuries when the rotors unexpectedly commenced.  These guys are in the business of flying RC.  They own a cool company called Camera in the Sky that uses an onboard camera to take aerial photography and video. Sure beats the old weather balloon trick. They actually fly a tricked-out Hexi.  This beast is bad @ss!  Keep up the good work, guys.  effyountoys wishes you a speedy recovery.
Anyway ladies and gentlemen, the point is that you can’t always avoid danger, but you should be prepared for it.  Please play smart!
