You guys don't think this is real do you? |
What do you mean, I have dozen of links like that and start to do it on the simulator myself, you should try this is fun, well a bit stressfull actualy.

The video is quite extreme, but I've seen similar stunts done life so... Yes, it does look like the helicopter was operated by muppet specialists, but it's not entirely impossible. |

The way this works is because you can invert the pitch with what they call the 3d switch so it can fly upside down etc. |

I understand it being inverted, but turning the propeller from going on direction that fast to flip around and do it the other direction that fast would require so much torque to do it instantly. There is no way that video is real :-P. I hope you guys are kidding around hehe |

Reverse direction of the prop? Uhh Scott, thats not how it works.
They reverse pitch of the prop, which reverses the direction of the airflow. |

ahhh. very true. Never thought about that. That might make it more believable, BUT, that video still is fake :-) |

So you are not kidding then, you are not aware of 3d flying. Please don't be like those you tube guys that say its fake without investigate first, again I bought the trex 500 and build it myself and do 3d flying on a simulator plus all videos I have seen before buying the helicopter shows 3d flying, are they all fake? |

No, I believe in 3-D flying, but think that video is fake. |

I got the HD Hero motorsport (suction cut and various curved and flat mounts), head strap, chest strap, tripod mount, roll bar mount, bike frame mount and an extra battery.
I just got it today so time to go test it out ;)

Fred,
Have you mastered the helicopter? Have you been uploading aerial footage?
