Just … wow! 😮 Did you all see (like I just did when I zoomed in between 1:49 and 1:59 ) the little mini-me 👨✈️ pilot-dude’s little mechanical mini-hands move his mini control levers? It looks like it > be the collective pitch control to lift off and then maybe both (?) the collective lever and the cyclic lever too getting moved by little mini-pilot-hands inside the RC helicopter’s cockpit. It’s a little difficult to tell for certain exactly what is moving there, even using the TH-cam Premium zoom feature when the helicopter begins to transition to a loose rearward hovering translation across the ground, but it’s clear the mini-pilot and the mini-control levers have little servos that are RC controlled too. That’s so cool!!! Well done there model makers and RC control system designers! That’s one very fine simulation! I could watch that close-up or in flight like an episodic TV series!!!
Superb flying from a legend. Stall turns / wing overs on a heli of that size is a demonstration of confidence in his building and skill.
