In the interest of the safety and reminder to others, I think it's valid is , we should have Mark set a spot here on Runryder as a permanent memorial for Ron Kyle, so his sacrifice would not go in vain.

Even though we may be confident in our flying abilities we need to recognize that mechanical failure is a possibility and these helis are capable of failure beyond our control.

Whether this was a factor in this tragic event is a moot point. We need to keep this in mind.

Make safety priority #1 at your flying site.

Yes, very sad indeed. Just goes to show ya what can happen. Like Dad told me, "When things go wrong, they go wrong just as quick as can be." It would be nice if there was a safer way to fly r/c helicopters. By this I'm talkin about the blades and the amount of control and sometimes orientation. What might help is if everyone bought a small camera to mount on their heli and keep a small tv beside them that is picking up what the camera on the helicopter sees. So that if you lose control, whether it's you or the student that loses the heli, all you have to do is look over at the screen if you are to disoriented to save it.

Just a thought, might be kind of expensive though, just depends on the camera.
