This thing is fucking crazy!

Is that the one where it flys upside down in a circle and hovers upside down an inch off the ground?

Fucking amazing. Keep in mind that thing is electric, where as most are gas powered. It takes quite a bit more electrical power to do stuff like that than compared to a gas powered helo.

In the beginning where it spins up and you can hear it chopping air, he's actually got the blades at full deflection, basically forcing it into the ground. With the flip of a switch he inverts that control which flings it into the air. Nearly all of the tricks where he's quickly going back and forth on the up/down axis is done with that switch.

Keep in mind that his controls are always in whatever direction the nose is facing. Flying a helicopter is truly done in 3 dimensions.

Yea, I can personally say they are not the easiest things in the world to fly. I had a daptor 30v2, and the best I could ever do was hover (hardest part ever to learn) and forward flights. Side to side was easy too. You should find a video of Alan Szabo Jr. He's quite amazing. So is Curt Youngblood.

That's fucking awesome! It must take alot of practice to figure out how to do all that stuff and not crash.

I haven't seen the electric one, but I'm sure it's fun to watch. I'd like to try it sometime, but RC stuff is so expensive. I have to buy car parts with my spare money.

Badass, I knew a friend that had an electric one once, They look fun

That takes a lot of skill to do. I have a couple electrics and about the only thing I've mastered is crashing. Theres one hell of a learning curve with helicopters.

Check out this kids web page and videos. He's 10 and can fly amazing.

After flying Miniature Aircraft's 1998 Graphite 60SE for 6years doing 3D, at the peak of my abilities I could probably do 75% of those menuvers but Holy crap. maybe at 1/3 that speed. I couldn't even count the times I though he put it into the ground. that takes some really big cahones to fly that low at that speed and switching positions that much.

Very impressive.... wish I was still flying.
