RC Piper J-3 Cub water trials

LiPo fire in Andy's green Extra

LiPo fire in Andy's green Extra

After a very successful maiden FPV flight the second 4S Zippy 2200mah exploded while Andy was tightening the safety belt. It was incredibly hot and had thick acrid smoke. Andy burnt his hand while trying to get the battery out and save the plane. Other than some holes in the covering and a blackend interior there appears to be no other damage.
