Those things are way too much money to be throwing around that close to the ground lol

I've seen a guy like that out at leisure hours. Looks pretty insane. I'm happier on the ground with my trucks! I'd wreck too many copters!

There are some videos of him just goofing around in front of his house....and you think you piss off your neighbors...imagine buzzing them with a helicopter!

that close up of the stick movement is insane! it don't look like he's a bit in control, lol...
there's an awesome video of Curtis Youngblood somewhere, he screws up, piles the rotors into the ground, still pulls the heli back up and lands the damned thing! now, that's the world's best 3d pilot....

I was screwing around and dug up a couple of vids..
Youngblood is more than a heli god... he's an innovator also, he's working on the first flybarless head (flew it last summer in Muncie), he's kinda like the Jimi Hendrix of RC heli's, lol

What happened? was there radio interference or what??
Its like he could not get that thing to fly straight to save his life! Its a miricle he didn't crash it. If I were him I would definately get a new remote!

Mike,
I think it was pilot error, not a radio issue.. I think he's just that good to be able to save something like that, I can't imagine kicking up dirt with the rotors and what the controls would have to be doing to save the thing from total chaos!
for some other good vid's go to youtube and look for Danny Szabo and Alan Szabo, both are insane!
