Yeah man! Not everyone may like HK but I do. I just thought that HK would like to know that someone put their name on an idiotic video. Thankfully, HK has already been made aware of the video.Graham Lawrie wrote:Well done Derek:)

Re: Hobby King! Really!?!?!
Hmm... No one's accusing them of selling ready-to-fly flame throwing drones. The claim is that either this pilot/builder is sponsored by HK or HK specifically sponsored the build of this particular "exhibition"/custom drone.
The wording on that reply, basically answering a question not being asked, makes me think they may have actually been involved with this. Also the fact the original video is still up on youtube. Given the prominent use of HK logos in the video and HK links in the description for it, they definitely have a strong case to make for issuing a takedown notice to Youtube. At the very least I'd expect them to make a reply/post to the discussion thread under it disclaiming all involvement and chastising the video poster for appropriating their company logo for use in the video against their wishes.
This video has been up for some time now (Dec 7). If HK wanted the original taken down or edited to remove their logos, they could easily have made that happen by now.
