Ouch. I've seen people hold these things in front of their eyes to check tracking and other mechanical issues. I wouldn't do it.
Glad it wasn't worse than that.

Man! Sorry to see ANYONE get hurt and, no sermonettes on this one. Just glad the injury was no worse than it is.....that HAD to hurt. Them lil' bitty gnats can have a healthy bite when they want.
The Failsafe idea is a good one, however for those who fly FM transmitters or, for that matter, PCM transmitters, how about setting up the throttle hold, then engaging it prior to plugging your gnat's (pronounced ga-nat) battery in.
And, for those of you, who choose to do what the good CDR mentioned, may God be with you because you "can't cure stupid."
