Safety with RC helis begins on the ground when you setup your heli and your transmitter. There are some important things to have in mind if you are flying helis to keep you and others around you safe. I will talk them through. If I forgot anything, please mention it in the  comments! !! ATTENTION !! In the video I said 2 meters minimum distance when hovering but it should be better 5 meters! I was not on the field for while because of bad weather so I thought 2 meters sounds fair. But on the field I noticed at once that the "healthy" distance should be much bigger. "Straight swashplate" was meant to be "leveled" :) Never fly in rain or snow: Water and even a bit moisture conduct electricity and can cause your electronics in the transmittter or the heli to fail! This can have very bad consequences and is NOT safe at all!!
