CPSC, Lite Machines Corp. Announce Recall of Motor Speed Controller

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The Fusion 35 motor speed controller may not operate properly, due to a weakness in a batch of integrated circuit (IC) chips. The (IC) chip can become hot and damage the controller. In certain instances, a malfunctioning IC chip can cause the helicopter motor to turn on for the several seconds before the power is disconnected, which can damage the helicopter or cause injury to the operator or bystanders.

What to do

Consumers should send the Fusion 35 speed controller to Lite Machines for a diagnostic test by the manufacturer. If the unit is defective, it will be replaced free of charge.
