Amusing Engrish typos on Asian R/C parts

Post by EvolutionRevolution »

So I just got in a lot of parts that had two Form "Shift cum holders" in it.

The laughter came pretty quickly.

Almost all my posts will be edited because I know what I want to write, but my fingers always hit the wrong keys.

Those are funny. You would think that these companies could hire someone who speaks English to translate or proof read some of these things. I should learn Chinese and I would have work for a very long time.

Just saw this on eBay. I'm guessing it's supposed to be a 'Starter Cone?' I doubt it tastes very good either way.
