Yeah, 'sporadic' movements he can do over and over and over again, four feet off the ground.

I guess he's just really lucky.

They should make a little RC guy that crawls out of the cockpit after they land and pukes on the tarmac.

Hey... nice video.

 

[Lawrencetan21]

Wow. I wonder how many he have total to be like that.

You could probably easily fit the strandard sized BB cannons on there, and maybe even the 1/4" ball bearing cannons as well. I think the standard BB cannons would work very well on it. Although, it would be much funner (the cannons) to mount them to a plane and shoot down other planes and birds....

geez thats awesome

I don't understand. How did he make the chopper hover in the air with it's tail pointed vertically downwards. The physics of it tells me he would just fall down and crash. Something ain't right.

Thats why he works it back and forth, it only hangs like that for a second before it will start to fall.

Holy smokes!

lmao! Can you imagine a more fitting name for some dude, who up and buys his own helicopter then tries to fly it without a single lesson, than "Hawg"?

The rotors on the propeller can twist. That way he can reverse the direction of thrust without having to reverse the direction of the propeller rotation, or make them totally flat so there is no thrust at all even though the propeller is spinning.

What kind of fuel delivery system does that heli have? I would have thought that all of that flipping and spinning would have starved the engine at some point.

they put a weight down at the end of the silicone hose in the tank, so when you flip it its still pulling strong


Oh yeah keep in mind than when you fly inverted (up side down), all the controls on the heli are inverted (pitch, yaw roll) so its major pita even to hover inverted...

variable pitch rotors. they can rotate 180 degrees in either direction.

A good pilot can do just about anything

From what I know about these things (which is very little), they use a standard two-stroke glow engine with a pressurized fuel delivery system. Hope that helps :beer:

 

Oh my lord.
