Holy cow ....
When that thing took off, I thought the "nice skills" must have been a sarcastic title as it looked like it was headed for a 2-sec crash and burn. Then I realized what I was actually watching was a re-enactment of "The Matrix" done by an RC helicopter. lol. That was awesome. Sideways backwards 360 circuits ... just wow. |

There's a guy that lives down the road from me that has a raptor 90, he can fly like this. It is crazy to see live. It doesn't seem possible at times |

Ive seen lots of videos with guys that have some awesome Heli skills, but that guy wins hands down!
How much money in repairs do you suppose he has spent to learn to do that?

Surely most of the practice was on a sim, but even so, I'd say he's bought quite a few nice electric helis. I cringe when I whack a set of mains on my blade cp - can't imagine burying a trex or something nicer.

I have always wondered just how they do that. I have seen other videos like this with the heli flying sideways as if it were a propeller on a fixed wing craft, or doing a large cyclone type trick again with the blades spining almost perpendicular to the ground. It's just amazing to watch.
