EDIT: I take it back, this might actually be for real. I found some more video's of this guy. Is this stuff actually for real? It does not look physically possible!

I dunno man. I know RC copters can do some really crazy stuff, like the whole hover upside down thing...but this looks a little extream. While I think some of the things that the thing did are possible, I'm gonna call BS and say that it's fake.

I flew R/C for 14 years... This is real... That copter is probably about a $4,000 machine... This is the big R/C Flying competition in Las Vegas, the best of the best turn out...
If you wanna see some other cool R/C Flying, check out this site and watch some of the videos... http://www.downonthedeck.com/

Yep, the rotor blades are kept at a constant RPM (usually around 1600-1800rpm) . To make the helicopter go up or down, you change the pitch. Negitive pitch allows for inverted flight as seen in the video. To the helicopter, going backwards is no different except the tail likes to windvail so that the nose is forward again. However RC helicopters have heading hold gyros that keep the tail where you last put it.

If you keep liquidating like this we're going to start wondering what plans you've got up your sleeve.....

Then I guess I shouldn't tell you about the $1,000 worth of 2-way radio equipment I sold in Jan/Feb...

2 year sabbatical and fly the family around-the-world in a Super Cub, right?
Or a South Pacific island and pick lint out of your belly button and solve the world's problems?

I'm thinking you could buy new stuff at retail price (or just over), then sell it on-line for 1/2 - 3/4 the typical wholesale rate. After a few months of doing that you should be qualified to run an airline. Six months later you're golden parachute bound for the South Pacific gig, methinks.
