AngelFire_91 Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 I loved the Precision one, best I've seen in a log time, I emailed to everyone I know that flies.... The others I've seen before. Quote
JDHelicopterPilot Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 The first was very well done! Quote
nocarsgo Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 don't forget this other one made from oregonflyboy too: Game Survey http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxSbOq4QhDA Quote
Wannabe1 Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Great Video! Esp the 'Fly a Choppa!...On the SNOWMAN video, did the pilot knock the snowman down because it is in a regular pickup area and he didn't want a surprise obstacle left for the next pilot, or was he being playful? Quote
PhotoFlyer Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Playful, I think. A little bit of him showing off his helicopter handling skills for the customers. Quote
Whistlerpilot Posted February 8, 2009 Author Posted February 8, 2009 Check out this excellent (2 part) instruction video on auto technique. Quote
MN Heli Flyer Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 Here is a couple of cool videos. Quote
MN Heli Flyer Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 ops! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dyisg9-Mwjw Quote
heli.pilot Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 ops! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dyisg9-Mwjw Ahhh the wisdom of youtube comments. This is what one user had to say about the second video: "This works because most helicopters nowadays are capable of gliding.if they are on course for a crash they can lock their rotars and glide into it to prevent spinning rotars hitting water/ground....this will make a crash a lot less fatali woork in the north sea on these choppers all the time." Silly me, I wasted my time practicing autos. All you need to do is lock the rotors (sorry, I mean "rotars") and glide... easy... much safer to glide without those dangerous spinning rotor blades (AKA spinny things)... Quote
IFLY Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I wonder how much less fatal it is to crash that way? Jerry Quote
MN Heli Flyer Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I wonder how much less fatal it is to crash that way? Jerry I wonder if it has thrust vectoring like a harrier? Quote
