What little I’ve seen from the hobby the tech and ability is pretty amazing, it’s just not my thing at all.I flew RC helicopters years ago when they used .61 glow fuel engines and fly-bars on the rotor head.
From what I see now they are electric and can run high G maneuvers without the issues associated with the fuel
system running lean and loosing power low to the ground.
When they crash it is almost cheaper to buy a new kit due to the extensive damage.
I guess if he shot that big ol ****** girl he'd be in trouble.
Obviously the make up artist had to much to drink the night beforeI am not sayin….but you can’t change from attached earlobes to detached earlobes…and chin dimples don’t vanish either.

Wonder what she did with that female Blue pulled off her nest?
Never got to ride in a helo but is this guy was the pilot Id want to do it on an empty stomach,
Damn, don’t she look like a fun girl?Wonder what she did with that female Blue pulled off her nest?
When they get that big they're not that good to eat.
A friend of mine hunts with Peregrine Falcons. It’s pretty cool!
I live FL so much, it’s just a shame it’s so fucking hot all the time.
Yep, forgot about crunching battery packs. Add that to the list for sure.I think my last 700 crash was about $500 to fix, and it was a really really minor low altitude dumb finger mistake and I hit throttle hold before it went in to minimize damage. The damage was rather minimal actually and didn't need a re-kit, but blades and parts sure add up fast, and I lucked out and didn't damage a $375 14S battery pack.
That didn't discourage me though, I doubled down on the stupidity and expensive crash costs and decided my electric 700s weren't enough financial risk in the air... So I built a turbine 700 that I do aerobatics and "light 3D" with. It's heavier and less powerful than my 700 electric, but sounds way cooler, lol.
Only close call I've had with it is when the clunk fuel lines in the tanks got hard after about 2 years and I didn't realize it, so they weren't able to move around freely and pick up fuel in all orientations. Turbine flamed out while inverted about 3 minutes before my normal low fuel warning; the transmitter started screaming "low EGT" and then "flameout" and then things in the air got really quiet... Managed a successful autorotation with no damage though.
After that close call I now change all the fuel lines once a year... Especially the clunk lines in the tanks.
Large RC aircraft of any kind are an excellent way to turn money into a collection of broken parts on the ground, lol. All it takes is one fat finger mistake or a little mechanical or electronics failure. Still fun though, paying crash costs not so much.
This reminds me, I haven't flown in a while now... Probably should put in some refresher sim time and take them back out to the field.
