Some of the things he does with this RC Helicopter are flat out amazing... i don't even understand how he can make it go straight up while pointing upward...

How is that thing not being ripped to shreds by gyroscopic forces? He must go thought blades and ball bearings like crazy...

Post by **R00k** » Tue May 15, 2007 4:38 am

Wow that was crazy.

It looks like he can flip the blades mid flight and the forward/aft pitch range of the rotor must be higher than normal.

I wonder what kind of mods he has on it.

Not that I know anything about rc helicopters.

he probably has the skills to be able to defend himself from three large men with that thing, and all he'd have to do would be to stand still and twiddle his thumbs.

i think he is referring back to the time where he cleaned his anus with his index and middle fingers.

I'm intrigued. do you have a paper in which this method is described?

Post by **Don Carlos** » Tue May 15, 2007 11:45 am

Yes, yes he does.

I quite like those little toy helicopters... But i want them smaller. Hopefully one day in the future they come out with microscopic versions of those things, perhaps equipped with laserpointers, onboard camera's and maybe even a little mounted tranquilizer dart gun. Imagine the fun!

that thing seems to be alot more powerful/lighter/stronger than a real helicopter

freaky

Air Hogs makes the Havoc http://www.amazon.com/Air-Hogs-Havoc-He ... 57-8237600

and the Reflex http://www.amazon.com/Air-Hogs-Reflex-H ... 57-8237600

I've flown the havoc and it is a blast... put a little paperclip on the nose for forward motion and fly all around the house or just hover in one place!!!!!!!

Lol, awesome

I may just have to get that Havoc thing...

Get it, you won't regret it. Don't pay attention to the reviews on amazon, those people are fucking morons if they can't fly this helicopter.

bought one on the way home from work. branded differently but it looks like exactly the same thing. it fucking owns, the cat hates it.

thats awesome, i wish my RC shopper had pull pitch/yaw controls to be able to try even SOME of that.

and this also give me an idea, when those unwanted guys get in the chopper in BF2, fly like that for a bit and make them get out... hummmm... that would be awesome.

edit: that Havoc is what i have! just re-branded.. its awesome to say the least! the only downer is no pitch/yaw controls. :/

how long does it take to learn flight on those?

Post by **phantasmagoria** » Tue May 15, 2007 8:01 pm

That's mint. It makes a fucking annoying noise though.

What the fuck.

Post by **Tsakali_** » Tue May 15, 2007 9:36 pm

holy shit he made that thing his bitch!... no physics braking rules anywhere but the sheer speed and level of control he has with the involved forces is scary.

even if we could find strong enough material and a light super uber engine , it still doesn't feel like it's possible.
