Reminds me of a contest in New Orleans. I was adjusting the needle<br>
valve and managed to get 18 small slices on the index finger of my<br>
left hand. I throttled back the throttle, put down the transmitter,<br>
reached into my pants pocket for a handkerchief, wrapped it around<br>
the damaged finger and picked up the transmitter, as blood ran down<br>
my forearm, and asked the judges if they were ready. When I didn't<br>
hear a response, I looked at them and both were gagging at the sight<br>
of my blood. Wusses!<br>

Well, I do try to fly other planes besides the pattern birds now<br>
and then. Flying a Cox(Pica) Duelist around has been fun and I<br>
finally completed a UCANDO3D over the winter. Since I don't have<br>
any engines between an OS .60 and a YS140FZ, I put the 140 in the<br>
UCANDO3D with a large 18X6W prop to keep the thrust up, but top<br>
speed down. Well, you probably know what is about to happen<br>
next.... The clearance to my arm exists, but with the narrow gear<br>
on the 3D (vs. a pattern airplane) there is only a few inches of<br>
room to spare. While starting up the engine for the third flight,<br>
the engine kicked back and somehow the prop met my bicep. I didn't<br>
even know it had hurt me, and was debating taking off and when I<br>
looked at my shirt and saw a nice red spot growing. Well, to make<br>
a long story short, a run to the Urgent care facility 4 miles away<br>
yielded 10 stitches and a lesson learned. I left my stuff at the<br>
field with the guys who were there and upon returning, I decided to<br>
take that 3rd flight on the 3D. This time, I asked for a holder<br>
though......<br>
