thats only truly impressive when you have flown a rc chopper before.

that man has some serious skills.

Spelling ridiculousness.

i dunno

i found it impressive enough to post here, and i aint never flown no chopper

I have a helicopter simulator thing, comes with a proper controller & what not. It teaches you how to do all that stuff and yes, it is REALLY hard. So far I can fly the chopper around & turn it upside down & land it but that's about it :( If I was training with a real rc helicopter I'd probably have gone through about $20,000 worth of them by now I've crashed that many times :)

that was f***ing incredible!

they could use that guy to do crowd control at riots

that dude has some skills. i don't what possible application they may have in life but damnit he's good at what he does.

You can get it from any decent hobby store. Costs like $400 though but if you're going to get into RC choppers and have never flown one before (like me) it is WELL worth it. Like I said, I must have crashed about $20,000 worth of RC choppers by now probably more if I'd just gone out & bought a real one first off.

It allows you to record your flights but it's only playable inside the game it doesn't record to avi or anything and I could never figure out how to use fraps so I can't really show you any videos of it in action unless I aim my dv camera at the monitor or something.

You can fly planes & helicopters, there's a few "fun" planes in there too with smoke & streamers.

I recommend Hobbyrama which is where I got mine and the guys there were awesomely helpful, willing to take the time & talk to you about things unlike another store I won't mention that basically just told me to buy this particular chopper because I'd just crash anything else which I thought was quite rude & condescending
edit edit: Looks like there's videos on the realflight website anyway.

Makes me wonder how many model helicopters he must have destroyed to learn that stuff.

yes, yes all very impressive and if it was 20 yrs ago pre-CGI the guy might have got some work with such mad skils. :P

But if you want to see some of the best real life chopper flying and stunt work, try and get a movie out called 'Birds of Prey' with old star David Jansen in it, in the movie chase scene you won't see better stunt chopper flying anywhere ...about 20+ yrs old but holy s*** man the guys that were flying those choppers were incredible.
