Doesn’t it terrify anybody else that you are right in the rotational plane for those propellers? If one of them were ever to break, it’s coming right at you.

- sunstone 7y agoNot only that but my understanding is that when carbon fiber breaks it explodes into a mess of tiny strings. Which is very unlikely to kill you directly though it might get wound up in the other three props and bring the whole thing crashing to earth.
