Sending lipos by airfreight is gonna get tougher here in the USA and else.A UPS jet crashed 2mo ago somewhere in the middle east do to a lipo shipment igniting in the cargo compartment.Both pilots died....read it in one of Dallas daily newspaper.......Al

Probably not, but the vendor is responsible for adhering to the law when shipping correct? I let them deal with that issure.

Not to hijac this thread, but Garmin just recalled my Nuvii GPS due to some of them catching fire while on the dashboard in direct sunlight. They provided me with a UPS shipping label to return it for a battery retrofit. Hmmmm...

I love lipos,but its a damn shame that people could risk their car catching fire or like the 2 pilots dying.All over a battery for a big kids toy.
