Default Murphy\'s Laws of the Piccolo

1. The propensity of any given part to break is inversely related the quantity of that part held as spares.
2. Despite better trim giving smoother flying, in any given number of flights, the one most likely to end in a crash is the one after the many adjustments that culminated in you having the piccolo trimmed ‘just right’.
3. The less people are watching, the greater your flying skill will be.
4. The better the outdoor flying weather, the greater the likelihood you will be ‘waiting for parts’.
5. ?

Anyone care to add any more

5. If you break a part and order loads of spares, you'll never break that part again!
6. After spending ages trimming the Piccolo, it is at that point you are most likely to accidentally lean on the throttle stick, have the rotors spin up to full speed, hit (and bruise) your hand and ruin all your trimming efforts!

check out more laws here

some examples include:

7. A part will cease to be missing at the moment it is no longer needed
8. The moment you say, state or mention, that an item has not been broken, either in a crash or otherwise, the next time you take it out to fly, you will - Moral: Never tempt providence, you'll be grounded!

.... oh those are the only rules in that thread [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

9. The better you fix your smashed skids, the harder your next landing will be.

If you leave the top of the CA bottle off you will knock it over. The more expensive the surface the more will be knocked over. The more is knocked over the more likely it is That She Who Must Be Obeyed will appear from nowhere.

10. If, at any given time, the weather is perfect, as sson as your batteries are charged, a hurricane(for the pic it feels like one!) shall appear out of nowhere.
11. The more spare parts or upgrades you require, the less money you will have available.
12. If all goes well, your tail rotor WILL break.
