Default holy cow!! is this a blade cpp? must watch!!!

watch this video, it might take a while to load, but it's definitely worth it. i 99% doubt that that is a stock blade cp pro. i think he's got brushless and hh gyro, and possibly a n upgraded tail motor/system (looking at it's piro rate) ... but still very amazing considering he's using a blade cp pro.

There are extraterrestials among us!
Heli-3D is a good way to have them self-identify.
That kind of activity is pretty common with the .90 slimer powered jobber-dos..
Haven't seen a Blade of any extraction that active, yet.
I've seen a video of one of these et's riding a unicycle AND flying a heli!

Gee, and I was finally feeling good because I could finally hover in one spot. Add that to my high golf handicap, my crappy guitar playing and there's just one more thing to feel bad about. Anyone seen my Prozac? []

I can tell you this much - a week after Nick posted that video, Tower Hobbies was out of stock of the GWS direct drive units That boy's single handedly caused a shortage for that motor across the market

Hey chopperdudes, good to see another 14 year-old flyin the pro. Ive was flyin the pro pretty good too doin loops and all but I had a little mishap and ended up really messing the heli up somehow. You could'nt even see any damage, but it shook like nuts when I would spool it up. So I replaced the main-shaft, that isnt it, so tomorrow Im just going to take the blades off and do a thorough inspection.

hey alex, i started with a 2nd hand blade cp... but now it's basically a pro, even with a 3 in 1. this is my first heli and ya... i've learnt on it myself, i didn't even know radds at that time. alex, good luck with your blade cp that 2nd place pilot is kyle stacy if i'm correct. he's rich, man! go on his website, www.kylerocks.com, he's even got helicopters that are taller than he is when he was 9 (raptor 90se)... there's a bunch of vids there too.
