Post your biggest RC blunders, mishaps, and mistakes

[kraegar]

Bought a $600 Nitro RC, then found out I was allergic to Nitro fuel. ($125 loss)

Put my first brushless system into my e-revo while still running the crappy stock radio, took it out to the alley beside by house, which has all kinds of power lines running down it. Had the car stopped facing me, turned to talk to my wife, and it took off on its own. Turned in time for it to hit me full on in the shin. Hurt to walk for a week. I've since switched to 2.4 and refuse to run anything else.

Bought a mlst2. Breaks all the time and I hate working on it.
