Man, is it a great time to be alive or what? I can’t tell you how badly I wanted a radio-controlled helicopter as a kid. I think I would have sold myself into slavery to get something like this rig:

Santa Claus would make my year by dropping one of these off on Christmas Day!
I wish they’d had RC helicopters when I was a kid !
Small world! Trent, the pilot of the video in the previous comment. flies for HeliVideo.com!
For the really exciting footage, we need to get the Canon 5D strapped to one of those UPenn QuadCopters
It’s amazing is a computer stabilized, electric helicopter is a $50 toy at the mall now. We had to make do with the Vertibird
That is just so darned good!!!!
Now we’re talking and John I so had that on my wishlist growing up 🙂 and having bought the Canon 5D Mk II last month… oh its crazy good.
This video has been out for at least a year now… Yaaaawn.

into slavery he?

[Whatever. –J.]
Sweet! My childhood dreams are flashing before my eyes…. How much does that rig cost? Good excuse to upgrade my camera, too. 🙂
“Man, is it a great time to be alive or what?”
couldn’t agree more with that statement, with such software tools as garageband, amplitube and some incredible r/c vehicles (i have 2 emaxx trucks) in every shape and form, it is a great time..all i have to do is find time for all of them…
That is really some amazing footage!! I am just a mewb RC heli fan but i also love to make videos. I cannot wait to i am able to shoot and edit my own!
These things are so cool. I wish they were around when I was a kid. I will have to wait till I have a son so I can get him one of these.
