Not every video is a fake. It flew away from him because he didn't know how to fly it correctly...simple as that. Although sooo many people here seem to think that these things are ready to go right out of the box and anyone can fly them, this video (and tons more) are evidence that's not the case. There's a good chance he didn't read the directions, and didn't know what options the unit had, and didn't know about the different settings. One of the first quads ever flown at my club was about the same size, perhaps bigger than this. We told the guy not to fly it, it was too windy. Nope, all set...he had lights on his quad and different colored blades. Up he went, and up and up, and off it went. Nice lights and fancy colored blades too...it got to far, and he lost it way over trees hundreds of yards away. He packed up and left.
