OMG,,,Aint that the Truth...WOW,,Such an awesome Heli destroyed..Incredible.

That's a great saying.

Old (ship) pilot's proverb "A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for". Can we level set: this is RC, and it is a hobby, not life or death. Of the 100s or 1000s of successful flights he enjoyed to gain those skills, you only saw the one that did not end so well. The joy of flying (RC!) as you see fit carries risk, and sometimes it catches up to you. Nothing time and money can't fix.

@J Raff oh dear oh dear, you clearly have no comprehension of the level you need to fly this well, this pilot has excellent flying skills and it was very well flown overall, he just made one misjudgment as have many many of the world best stunt pilots across the world in real aviation. All of them even the best mess up sometimes.

@J Raff in your case one oh dear wasnt enough no

@J Raff nobody in their right mind who has ever flown rc helis would agree with you here. His skills are excellent. The crash has absolutely nothing to do with his skill level. You can tell he is very experienced because of the smooth coordinated way he flys with excellent control even at speed . You rarely see this smoothness even in experience scale heli pilots. also the amount of hours you have and the credentials you state explain exactly why you are not even close to this guys level or able to recognize it. And if you think a 100 hours of sim time is going to give you the skills and level to judge this guy then that says it all to me. You will never get this level from the sim

Some people are happy to fly like a princess. Some like to push the envelope. I have to agree with the OP. If you don't take risks, you're not pushing yourself to be better. We all WOW at the low and fast flying stunts. This unfortunately happens at times.

icin4d that is absolutely true..

He isnt quite good enough.

totally agree! his skills are top-level. Anyone here who says otherwise has absolutely no clue about the ability and difficulty involved in flying rc helicopters at this level of maneuverability and smoothness and have probably never flown one themselves. One of the best ive ever seen.

Same! Usually they just hover around and go like 3MPH Forwards or backwards. Idk why they don’t fly them like the real helicopters, going forwards at a cruise speed

Vielleicht sollte er einfach nicht so draufgängerig fliegen wenn er es nicht zu 100% beherrscht. Selber schuld, wie kann man nur so knapp über dem Boden fliegen, das kann nicht gut gehen. Schade um das schöne und sehr leistungsstarke Modell. Dieser Unfall war TOTAL!!! unnötig.

@Albert Rieder Zustimmung - ein weiteres schönes Scale-Modell ruiniert durch Dummheit und Leichtsinn. Ein solches Modell ist für realistisches, vorsichtiges Fliegen gedacht, nicht für Stunts und Akrobatik. Wer darauf steht, ist mit einem 30€-Spielzeug-Heli von Amazon besser bedient.

Das selbe habe ich auch gedacht. So wie der den Heli herumbolzt habe ich schon viel früher gedacht das er ihn crasht. Sah aus als würden sich sich enthaupten wollen. Völliger Wahnsinn...

Roger Bivins Beautiful write-up, thanks for sharing your thoughts from the position of a more experienced and putting the effort into making this “debate” meaningful.

How much do you think it costs to build a helicopter like this, all said and done? Including transmitter, etc

Son of THE King Though I have built from scratch and kits more models than I can recall and still have 1/2 an attic full of various types of rc aircraft, it's been years since I have actively flown anything other than fpv quads and the heli you see in this video is quite on another level from any of the ARF glow engine helis I am familiar with. That said, I can can tell you that the turbine engines alone, I would estimate on the lower end of $1500- $2500 and I would have no problem believing the one in this heli if purchased new costing 2 - 3 times or more either of those figures and then the costs of high quality radio equipment with gyros, servos, on board electronics ect, on this type of heli I assure you is not at all an insignificant consideration to the overall costs. Aside from the costs of the many parts to develop a model like this, the investment that has to be made in building time might surprise most, as it is, for the builder / pilots anyway, generally a highly skilled labor of enjoyment because the only profit for the months and sometimes years of sweat, tears and effort is the self satisfaction of creating something more complicated and perfect than most folks will ever understand let alone truly appreciate. I guess I'm going around the world to say that although I couldn't know precisely how many dollars and cents have transferred hands by the time a ship like this lifts off on its 1st flight, and I suspect if like me and most I know, the owner doesn't know, or doesnt really want to know, but most guys taking on a project like this is done because it is actually a therapeutic process that can sometimes wipe a bad work week off the books by making just a couple more hours progress. I would only Hazzard an uneducated guess and say this bird could possibly require a monetary investment of as little as $3500 to over $10,000 and unless someone has begun mass producing them, a but load of personal time. If your thinking about one for yourself tho, be advised, this ain't the starting place. Get yourself a simulator and by the time you can fly the sim inverted and toward you, you will be ready to fly and will have saved the price of this heli in replacement parts. Good luck!

Roger Bivins excellent, thank you for the detailed reply! maybe I'll stick with my parrot drone for now haha! take care

Son of THE King Man I wouldn't ever want to discourage good people from experiencing the model aircraft hobby at all. Airplanes commonly make up the larger percentage of model types at most clubs and are far more forgiving during the learning curve. Also buddy cords are more useful with planes in getting a new pilot comfortable in a hurry without as much oops risk but most clubs will have at least a few heli pilot members to share knowledge with you. Model helicopters are a lot of fun and its rewarding to develop the coordination to control them but they are not at all forgiving to error and piloting a true scale glow, gas, or turbine powered heli successfully requires constant automatic control to stay ahead of the heli. Beginning that journey to thoughtless control with a $200 or less simulator will reduce the learning time x 100's and when starting, and every 3-6 seconds you hit the reset button you will have saved at least the price of the broken rotor blades if not far worse. Generally speaking there is an across the board fellowship at flying clubs with no shortage of members willing and able to help new comers get a successful start. There are local clubs all over the country and more likely than not, you may have have one within driving distance. Attend a fly in or enjoy a visit one Saturday morning, it could change your life!

and that’s your opinion. the word scale needs to go !!! that’s my opinion.

you ever seen a Hughes 500 fly in real life??? Watch old Magnum PI reruns.........TC flies one.

Sahadi420 this was real life

well it was more entertaining that the normal scale flying AKA - hovering and rotating slowly, yawn

Agreed, could surely take someones head off or cause a severe injury. Most people fly these sensibly, this guy got what was coming.

If you notice..he was flying in a pattern parallel to the crowd, and within the proper airspace as skilled pilots are trained to do. He was not flying negligently by RC standards and if somebody is worried for there safety then they need to move the selves further back or just not attend these events. There is a level of risk involved as soon as you leave the house. Be responsible for your own safety and don’t hate on others. Or just grow a pair.
