* The word "<span lang="fr">escampette</span>" comes from the old fashioned French idiom "<span lang="fr">prendre la poudre d'escampette</span>" ("to take the powder of 'escampette'"), which means "to escape". The word itself isn't really used in any other context in the language, and can be roughly translated to "little escape" or "little getaway" due to the "-ette" suffix meaning "small" in words like "cigarette" meaning a "small cigar"

* The arm the Spy uses to hold L'escampette will still appear even when the "invisible arms" setting is enabled, {{code|tf2c_invisible_arms 1}}
* The Spy's wristwatch arm will still appear even when the Invisible Arm Viewmodels setting is enabled. This is a consequence of the arm being part of the watch model, rather than being an attached ''c_model'' like with every other weapon.
* Reloading while cloaking will make the Spy appear to have three arms - one holding the gun, the second holding L'escampette, and the third reloading the chamber.

* In the promotional art for L'escampette, there is a texturing error on the metal square next to the pipes on the left side. A default Source engine texture is visible where a metal texture should be. This error is not visible on the Flight or Fight update page, as the image has been cropped. In addition, there is a [[Brick]] kill icon on the hazardous barrels on the right side, teasing the weapon three days before its official reveal. This is, in fact, visible on the update page.
