Guest pokey Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 son of a ! SOooooooooo THAT's where my 2nd grade chair ended up ? ! I had a few of those R/C helicopters wayyyyyyyy back in 1983 or so, werent cheep back then & i doubt they got any cheeper. Not all that easy to fly either, interesting concept for R/C, but? i highly doubt it has a place in "real" helicopter training. PLUS ? when you lose control of the thing? yer stuck in that chair & if its headed towards ya? YIKES ! Quote
JMac24 Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 Did ya catch the video? Good stuff. Like he couldnt have added text to any video. I just cant see it working. Quote
John90290 Posted July 7, 2006 Author Posted July 7, 2006 Just thinking about a cost comparison; if it takes you 10 hours at $200 per to learn to hover that's about $2000. Time, effort and money to build hover chair- $500 Time, effort and money to buy RC Helicopter - $500Looking like an idiot in your front yard- Priceless I'd rather loose the grand. Quote
RotorWeed Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 I wonder if it comes in a two place so your friends can join you? If you are flying the 22 you still have to meet the SFAR73 time requirements, so tell me again how you will save money learning to hover in a wooden chair? RotorWeed Quote
