I was at the field today between 14:00 & 15:00 all on my own , good flying too. There is a dead sheep along the fence line towards the gate from the pits, I saw the farmer so reported this to her. I hope no one had plans for a BBQ Smile .

As ive always suspected futaba gear is rubbish, they have launched a product recall on on some of there "high end" equipment.

I sugest that we move to formaly ban all forms of futaba equipment untill we can be satisfied of there safe use.

I was quite suprised that you called the wall charger high end, just not sure if there, their or they're safe to use though.

It probably cost more to publish the recall than the charger costs

You wouldn't expect anything less

If you ever get to buy a high end piece of equipment of any kind you'll know you get a power supply unit not a cheap wall charger
