Doug, you'd be a "House Monster" with one of these!

Tryan, It's easier to control than my Axe CP was.

Is it just me....or???

Does it seem to get awfully close to the 6 ft antenna the guy's got? Maybe it's just a visual perspective thing....Gotta love the 2.4ghz stuff!!

JC

I used to be normal, but then I started flying heli's....

It's not just you JC-- When I first saw the video I thought the heli was dangling from the antenna It is long for sure. Also the guy doesn't just have it hanging from a string but a very long "rubber band" of sorts to keep the "string" from winding into the rotor blades as it lifts. It's actually a pretty decent inverted training device if you don't have a SIM.

Actually its been sort of an idea ive had. It looks like that guy could fly inverted all day without breaking it. You could get really good at inverted then go out and do it. Less butterflies. You know how the heli will react. Its great. I wouldnt do it in the house. The garage would be okay. ....................If your goal was to go inverted.

We need video proof around here.
