Guest sharky Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Gee thanks Cirrus Just when I was hoping the 'holier-than-thou' posters have calmed down from the last influx of videos, you went and swatted the beehive again.... Just remember folks, as this thread stretches for pages, this video is from the 70's; rules and airmanship were little different then. Before it was edited with 'extreme' on liveleak, was filmed as a music video. I can't remember the artist's name or song, but he's the one shown 'flying' in the right seat. I say 'flying' because the cyclic is constantly repositioning itself from his lap up to his chest, and despite his control movements, the aircraft doesn't react....at all. Hacksaw anyone? Anyhoo...

Guest sharky Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 FYI, Filmed in 1967, artist Roberto Carlos and the original video and song before it got hacked up. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=96309eda84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinstar_ca Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 More fuel for this fire! Equally Crazy??? hate to be the devil's advocate, but it looks like he's pretty much in control of the machine... can't say much about his confined area/populated area operations, but at least he knows where to go and how to get there!!!

TwistedSpar Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 More fuel for this fire! Equally Crazy??? Chinese homebuilt helicopter in flight that thing is hilarious....it almost looks like he took the plans from am RC model...expanded it and built it up. It even sounds like an RC heli. I had to keep looking closely to see if the "GI Joe" doll was actually moving LOL :punk: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
