Dude, I have blood on my my transmitter from the exact same plane! Hahahahaha! Vicious li'l beastie that plane is! I've actually taken to sanding the leading edge of my props, so they are smooth and less... Lacerationy. I've also started holding the F-22 by the back, where it is safe-ish.

I hope you heal fast and well - and don't worry, that design flies so well, the next time you take it out, you'll be all like "F-22, I can't stay mad at yuuuuuuuu"

Sometimes things just happen, mate - All part of growing up. It'll grow back soon, and chicks dig scars!

Could have been so much worse! What if it was a quadcopter... And you dropped it in your lap!?! (0.O )

Note to self: Stick to airplanes. Just in case...

I have experienced with the killer prop in the past too, my pinky finger was cut almost an inch length, and i can see my born thru the cut meat ://///
At the time there was no bleeding coz of the weather is very cold, soon enough it heal up. and I Enjoy the fly again :)
hope you get better :)

I have a FlySky radio and screwed up by turning off then on the transmitter without turning off the reciever......Which made motor go full throttle for 3 sec. in and of itself that wasn't bad because I was no where near the prop untill it pulled free of the two piece stick mount and beat my hand to death untill the motor turned off. My hand will never be the same.
