Um Phalen, did they run it in the house? No. Did he crash due to the fact that he shouldnt have been sold a 6 turn in the first place without learning how to drive first? Yes. Could he have hit someone and sued anyways? Yes. If someone doesnt sells Li-Po without stressing the importance of extreme care and something happens, should they be sued? YES. If someone is careless enuf (or ignorant) to sell li-po without proper disclaimer advice and instruction given to a customer, they should be sued.
I work in sales and for the market I represent, I analyze and go over with a fine tooth comb, every client, product and service that I bring to my Company. Because our clients advertise to the military, I take extreme precaution of what I will and will not accept. That being said, any unscrupulous hobby store employee (mind you, employee, not owner) that is selling stuff just to move product, deserves to be sued! Period!
