badmotogoozer Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 Hey Jim - I got some moves for ya to work on... http://selkiesound.bravepages.com/images/RC_Chopper.wmv Rj
badmotogoozer Posted March 2, 2005 Author Posted March 2, 2005 shite - that didn't work... I'll try to figure it out Rj
badmotogoozer Posted March 2, 2005 Author Posted March 2, 2005 It works if I cut and paste into my browser but the link doesn't work... Rj
helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 That is wild! I wouldn't be able to do the first 5 seconds of his routine and I'd be in a million pieces!
DeBenGuzzi Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 that doesn't even seem real. how do you fly them upside down? unless you can change the direction of the blade in a hurry I'm really confused by this, it has to be fake! maybe not. but its insane. I guess when I think about it you COULD change them that fast. but good god this man has more free time than ANYone I know. and lots of $$$ for gas and previously crashed helicopters
Guest dopiata Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 They have dual aposing blades, one in one direction and the other in the other direction. It is how they the props are bent so to speak. This allows: 1. No rotor (rear rotor which changes directions) 2. Much more stable 3. Better tricks I have a Traaxas Revo Truck. It does 40mph and is 4 wheel drive. http://www.traaxas.com It hauls. I have a few buddies with copters and planes. In short, a man needs atleast 5 projects. I have 5 as well. 1. My Guzzi. 2. My 87 Chevy Pickup (immaculate) 3. The Revo 4. Various computer programming projects I work on. (weekend work). 5. The house, which is done ... there is very little left to fix, modify, or do?
Guest dopiata Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Sorry the URL is: http://www.traxxas.com/ http://www.traxxas.com/products/video/trx_video_vault.htm Check out how it flies ... This is one bad jump, I think 80+ feet? http://www.traxxas.com/ftp/revo_mov/trx_video_revo07.htm
DeBenGuzzi Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 AHHHH poo on traxxas, I have a Mugen MST-1 NOW that flys lighter quicker I likes it. I've had them all tho, A EK4 with the .70, several road cars like the GT4 and a kyosho buggy. a MBX was the best built tho. solid through out I'd like to get one of those copters but they aint cheap. I only have 4 hobbys My: oo' Guzzi My Computer My Rc cars An Fishin 4 is enuff trust me although I still find myself bored quite often that could be filled with a truck restoration I was working on a 65 C10 chevy with a new 350 4bolt and all kinds of goodies but it got out of hand and out of budget and it had to go. so anyone gots any ideas for a new hobby?
jrt Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Electronics or Brewing Course with brewing, you might get fired from your job for making a superiour product.
DeBenGuzzi Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Ahh come now, not really the owner of the distributorship's son went off and started his own brewery, he didn't do too well and is trying to sell it now because beer as kind of taken a dive in the US, all those ppl drinking booze out there making my job difficult. Although I just deliver Kegs and we've been steadily going up which I'd rather wasn't the case I think I work hard enough.
badmotogoozer Posted March 3, 2005 Author Posted March 3, 2005 Jim- What??? You can't hover upsidedown, fractions of an inch above the tarmac?? Hell, yer not gonna be much good on that MGS-01 Rj
helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Oh well. I'll be happy to be no good on the MGS!!! In fact I intend to be downright bad!!

I'm no avaitor or RC Guy, but it has to be a reversible pitch rotor and I'd guess that there has to be some sort of processor-control on the pitch control that automatically vectors thrust direction with gravity, so that the operator doesn't have to think about it, or he'd NEVER be able to flick it around like that.
badmotogoozer Posted March 4, 2005 Author Posted March 4, 2005 I intend to be downright bad!! 45055[/snapback] atta boy!! No not fake - this was the winner (IIRC) of a RC competition in Vegas. Best operators, best equipment. That is what they can do. Rj
