I'm pretty sure that show is fake. The guy that comes to look at the system is Sean Harris and he just so happens to have a copter like that one shown the best I can recall. I remember selling him the red anodized FMTS tubes as a special order item. Also it has an original carbon 2X gimbal. I call fake, but still a interesting segment.

First off..
Exactly how long before you fail to pay your storage fees do they put the locker up for auction.

2nd..
I didn't see any charging setups so even if they auction off the locker say conservatively in 2 months..
Are they telling you that a box of LiPos will sit at a full charge in a storage locker with absolutely no signs of puffing?

Also I saw no signs of any deterioration (rust, etc ) on anything.

3rd....
It just so happens that the Tx also has a charged up battery?

4th.....
No sign of doing any preflight inspection or operation.
Don't know... but if I were to just happen to find a setup like that.. I would be inclined to go through the setup to see exactly how it operates.
Not just strap up a set of packs and spool up.

I agree.. this looks wayyyyy to good to be true.
Just too many things do not jive.

I've left batteries charged for over 8 months. No problem at all. I am still using them. 4S 5000 20C Turnigies.

So I dunno... They probably have 50 flights through since I had left them charged for almost a year. May be down on pep a little but.. <shrug> No problem for sport flying.
