Hu hu, we just miss the lithium explosion just after that.
Why didn't he just reach in and snatch that right back out instead of trying to kick it? It principle it actually did work, it just needed a better pilot!
No, it immediately lost lift when the propellers lost any structural integrity as soon as it was even a little warmed up...it was a glob of lost plastic well before he tried to kick it.Quote:

The bloke is an idiot and deserves to lose his drone.
