Safety - RC Helis are not toys > The lost photo

Hi Guys,

After some weeks, I found the original lost picture of the two stupid friends.

Please, never makes any stupid thing like that, these guys are trained and they are using special clothes and accessories to do this in complete safety.

Obs: The Brazilian pilots are not stupid like these two.... Excuse us for that.


Good flights

Sorry, but look closely, that's a photoshop job. I am getting a degree in multimedia and you can easily see that the motion blur on the main blades is photoshoped and the exhaust is even more laughable.

Sorry, but this is definately faked.

I agree. Doesn't look at all real to me. Fake squiggles in the airframe. Impossible blade and paddle angles...

A big clue is that while the main blades have a 'sort of' motion blur, the paddles and the tail blades do not. The 'author' of the picture should have taken a good look at an actual photo of a hovering heli, and at least tried to match that.


Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups.

Considering they are done up like clowns it looks like a fake to show what people that do that sort of stuff look like.

I don't think they are even real "clowns". Looks like a fake clown nose to me also (could have been photoshoped on). I am not sure yet but I am really leaning towards this photo being fake. It will take a few more days of close study to know for sure.

Recent studies have shown that flying a RC helicopter is more addictive than crack cocaine

I don't even own a nitro heli yet, and even *I* know that the guy on the left wouldn't like having exhaust shot into his face. It's amazing how so much heat from the engine makes heat waves across the boom... and yet the exhaust lazily floats around in S-curves, not to mention the downwind isn't affecting the exhaust smoke. I'd like to see more people "photoshop" pictures.

now that doesn't look fake at all.
the guy on the left in the first photo isn't even holding on to anything, it looks as if he was posing for a picture with the heli at an angle, dragging the 2 of them, maybe

Okay, well that one looked real and it turned out real! This one would have to be animated to be any less realistic.
