Nieuport 17, three line engine control. four stroke, doesn't end well
I have watched this for a couple of years now and stumble upon it every now and then.

Those videos are a trap. I cringe when I see the carnage but somehow, sadistically, I'm drawn to continue to watch and scan through all the other crash videos that pop up along the side. I don't think they help, particularly the RC ones. The reason I never tried RC again after several attempts is that there's so much youtube evidence of the risk involved, I don't think I'll ever trust those invisible radio waves again. Hands-on for me!

Ouch! That is most definately not a nice sound. The only thing worse is that I have now committed to learning to fly nitro rc and I am sure that this will be a sound I will be hearing.....
