Had a pretty awesome 29th birthday, even got some new toys! Good thing the kids were in bed, they could've gotten whacked in the head by my "expert" flying... observe.

It started melting while we were eating dinner. My wife looked over and made some "emergency noise", and i look over to the hutch and it's on fire. It no longer will fly... no worries! Bought another one!

Likely, I'm not sure. It wasn't a hobby quality chopper, just a toy. It was an LED in the tail that started the meltdown. One too many crashes into the computer desk....

Happy Birthday. I used to own a Rapter 30, 52" blades spun 15,000 RPMS and require a battery box and starter... Not something I would try in the house LOL.

I got two of the small ones last year for Christmas.Have not caught fire but still have not mastered them. From what I've read the larger ones are what to start with as they are easier. Happy Birthday.
