RE: RC model Helicopters - more than a bit off topic!

[REB.Barnett@xxxxxxx]

I charge the heli battery in the engine bay of the car, so the pictures
might be even more dramatic than a heli crash!

Thanks anyway.

As a further question - is there a good performance reason why
manufacturers
keep on supplying NiCad batteries - surely NiMH are made in sufficient
quantities to compete on cost nowadays?
