Warning: hidden point of failure on props found

Who on earth would do a CSC in mid air? On purpose? 'Oh look, my quadcopters flying, I wonder what will happen if I stop the engines?.......boo hooo hoooo, I damaged it.....'

It's there for emergency shutdown (safety) see my post above (#16) and numbers 17, 18 and 19.
If your aircraft was heading straight for a freeway/road or for a group of people/children or another aircraft you would emergency ditch it.
It's in my ops manual as an emergency procedure.
It has been a feature of every DJI platform and flight controller since the early incarnation of the Naza and also the likes of WooKong, A2's etc

I'm pretty sure he referred to the person who basically suggested someone tried to see if it worked, which would be quite stupid indeed.

Anyone tested attempting CSC in the air to make sure it works as advertised and won't do it?
