RE: HOWS THIS FOR STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This topic has been run into the ground (no pun intended) over on runryder. This is about the stupidest thing anyone could do with their heli. You do realize that those blades are spinning about 2000 rpm and that could easily injure or worse kill someone if he were to loose control. I also like the can of beer on the table behind the heli. He keeps it up, he'll be in line for a Darwin award.

Good Luck,

he wasnt zoomed in....you can tell by the way the room showed through the door, to get the angle he got, and see as far into the room to the left as he did, if he was zoomed, then that halways is REALLY wide..plus zoom when using a handheld camera makes for a very jittery shot...since small movements are bigger when zoomed...

Did anyone else see what I saw. The chick on the left is piloting a d@mn Rap60 in the living room (of their trailer) hovering side-in...after drinking 7 Pabst Blue Ribbons?

I love how everyone goes on the attack on this one, and throws in the trailer trash/redneck comments...
You think you could have held a heli side-in in that tight of a space? To me thats DAMNED good skill.
And by the way, just a heads up...whenever you try to insult someone buy calling them a redneck...it doesnt work...Im a "refined" redneck (meaning for 8 hours a day i can act civil and boring) ... but ive never taken the word redneck to offense...

It may be DAMNED good skill, But it's not DAMNED good sense. Even living in the middle of redneck country I can see that.

The plane flying in the room is also kinda dumb, but at least there are no other people in the room with him. It looks to me that he set camera up and put it on auto. I fly my CX around in my living room when family is over, but I would never do anything liek that.

I would say it is stupid but just real dangerous. But you could see that he had it under control. it is funny to hear the smoke alarm go of. And that plane one is just crazy.

I think this was rather short on common sense but respect their choices. Some of the responses on on the other boards are downright irritating!.[:@]
There was actually a guy threatening to go over and destroy their heli if he ever saw these folks flying near him...for the good of the hobby no less! The guy was from California, go figure.
