Back in the 90s we did this all the time - we called it "doing the funky chicken". I had a Concept 30 IC powered heli throw the radio battery out on impact leaving the throttle on almost full bore. It took quite a few minutes for the clutch to finally burn out and allow me to go pull the fuel line off.
That's what we in the RC heli hobby call the "chicken dance". Only way to stop it quickly with a nitro heli is throw a coat or jacket on it, then run up to it and yank the fuel line off.
hahaha nothing scarier than a big 600 or 700 Nitro Heli smashing itself to pieces on the floor while the engine is SCREAMING and you're desperately trying to get near the fucker to cut the engine without losing a hand!! haha!
Basically the HW autopilot removes all of the fear and apprehension of your first rc heli crash, by crashing FOR YOU. 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂. Jk awesome video as usual, mate!
RC Helicopters are a lot easier to fly with auto gyros these days. I built a Morley Bell 47G with 6.5cc glow engine (designed by Jim Morley) in the late 1970’s early 1980’s and without gyros it was like balancing a ping pong ball on top of another ping pong ball, in a breeze. Took me a couple of months to grasp the hover.
As someone who's been in the drone bizz for 5+ years (and has worked for DJI), I'm genuinely curious what you mean with 'sometimes disagrees with what you want to do'. Could you elaborate?
I love 3D helicopters, it's my favorite RC models to fly, especially the 6CH ones.. I don't like the GPS helicopters, I'd rather stick to the original way to learn.. Which is... Try take off, crash before helicopter lifts off the ground. (Chicken Dance).. Then repair the helicopter!! Try fly and crash again! Cry for a while, and fix it again! Then take off and crash... Laugh about it, and cry... Fix it again!! Fly it and enjoy, then crash and fix it as it's a routine already.. Honestly half the fun is to repair it and maintain it, the other half of the fun is to fly it! It toom me 2 years to learn to hover it in all orientations, and another 1 year to fly it 3D style properly without crashing it.. Now I don't crash much at all, can't even remember when I last crashed, lol.. Anyway it was fun to watch the helicopter being destroyed like that, laughing like crazy here really.. Shouldn't have let the newbie fly such a beautiful machine, or at least you should have explained better how to operate it.. LOL SWEET Keep well and be safe bro!
Oops 😬, that’s why when it comes to anything that flies you HAVE TO read instructions from “ front to back & back to front & inside out “ if you don’t, well you found out what happens... Hilarious vid 🤣😂😂🤣😂😅 👍👍👍👍👍✌🏻
flips into gps "flies like a drone" he hasnt flown an acro drone it seems. Give it a try for me kev, love to see your power loops and barrell rolls! shred the gnar boys, carry on!
I suspect it was because you tried to take off in 3d mode as it looks like it wanted to flip upside down as you throttled on ,could be why it vibrated gyros where confused . Does it say anything in the book about modes you have to take off in .
I love the fact you have a flashy sports car but drive a fucking Rover, ha ha, British engineering at it's best, saying that it's in great condition for an 05 plate.
I wonder if it wasn't level when "turning on" when the flopping incident occurred? Might be that it's doing calibration, and if you do that before setting it down the gyro will lock to that orientation and see it as "level". So then you got it trying to level itself to something that's wrongly calibrated, and that's when the hijinks begin.
When he said that its newbie friendly i just flashbacked to the first 5 sec lol
😂😂😂
@@NoMercyRC i know but that chicken dance tho
Omg right
the gps was like "don't worry bro i got ya, trying to take off from the side of a hill, lemme just tilt you a little"

That was part of the fun back then 😂
I can’t express how much I cringed when those blades were hitting the floor
RCModels same
It didn’t bother me it wasn’t mine 😂
Brits say floor instead of ground for some reason. Deal with it
Sean Hamilton no we say ground to in Britain
@@seanhamilton4175 who Pissed in your Cheerios this morning?!?...Lil Hostile 🤣🤣🤷🏼♂️
best bit for me was kev's face when the camera guys joked about the crash not filmed gahahaha that was true reaction reaction right there
Vinny got him
Gotcha!! 🤣🤣🤣

So sad :(
never let a good funkey chicken go to waste!

Funky Chicken!
In this case they could have just hit the kill switch on the Tx
13:29 Kevin's face. His honest thought: Whaaaat haappeeen?😁😁😅
Hi Kev you are the best youtuber and have got me through these hard times 👍😊you are an inspiration
How he inspired you and what are the results in your life due to Kevin
Jamuna Sharma he has by getting me into rcs and he’s made my life more fun
That's great you in right track
@@jamunasharma929 thanks 🙏
It looked like a moth that was sprayed with brake cleaner. 😂
💀Game Over💀
Hol up
Wat

You should do a review on the RGT Rock Hammer witch is a rock crawler that would be good with a Brushless system
Congratulations, you have made the first “rc helicopter malfunction shenanigans “ video that this giant robot actually liked to watch
Basically everything is broken but its not that bad.😆😆😆
Trust me, it could have been soooo much worse...
Excellent flight! Very good skills at keeping the blade tips hitting the ground at all times. Very good!
Your response when it's destroying itself is priceless. Haha. Good reminder to always remember they're only toys.
OMG the look on your face was priceless!!!! Get back to the air when you fix it
If that is a beginner helicopter, I think I'll stick to RC trucks 😆
This TH-camr is epic never seen anyone like this before
Man i will go someday to Britain just to go to the hobby shop you go to and race crawlers
I was expecting a different crash but it was hilarious
I was dying out laughing 😂
I LOVE how he is getting back into choppas🙃😅
0:09 lol I laughed so hard🤣
I tried not to laugh....just wasn't possible. And you know, it could'a been worse......LOL
hahahaha
Yo Kevin!!! I always have so much fun watching your channel. Thank you for just being you!!! Much love from the states. See you at next paddlesworth!
The blades on the floor sound like a drum roll 😂

Thank you for reminding me why I don’t fly Helis anymore 👍
I bought a Mavic Air recently, it’s pretty good, cept it sometimes disagrees with what you want to do.
Standard!
As someone who's been in the drone bizz for 5+ years (and has worked for DJI), I'm genuinely curious what you mean with 'sometimes disagrees with what you want to do'. Could you elaborate?
P.s to do 3d you need a 4s lipo 400mah at least not a 1800mah 3s.
Nice to see you getting back into helicopters
Helicopter are smart ! Because they knows, that Kevin destroy everything, and she says I prefer to destroy my self ! 🤣
Lmao. Kev with that nervous chuckle when he hands over the controller
Congrats on the 700.000!!🥳
Call it "try not to die" cuz I about went out laughing.. Sounds like u started yelping, help helpp help haha that's cold hard fun right there.
Wow... it's the chicken dance...😆...I missed those days... it's been 6 Years since i stop flying RC helicopter...it collecting dust now...🤭
What an opener! Flippin hilarious bruv! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Keep well and be safe bro!
I would love this I have never flown before but it is so expensive
Stay away from it my friend..u willll waste ur money
Kev congrats on the 700k subs very happy that you hit it and still pushing through
700k subs congratulations kev 👍
😂auto level, auto hover, auto invert, auto Rescue, and special mode AUTO Self-Destruct🤣🤣🤣🤣
Your getting the aircraft guys attention now... keep up the planes and helis 💪
The new omphobby M2 Evo has an upgraded tail motor and it is much more solid even under heavy pitch bumps. Great little series of micro helis
I’m laughing so hard right now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
never seen a breakdancing mode before, looks alil dangerous. good thing they give that extra tail rotor
Your reaction trying to flip the emergency stop switch is priceless. 500 Quid's lol
Saw this thing last week on Banggood.
Talking about taking the fun out of learning to fly rc helicopters. Quite dangerous in the hands of a noob too.
Oops 😬, that’s why when it comes to anything that flies you HAVE TO read instructions from “ front to back & back to front & inside out “ if you don’t, well you found out what happens... Hilarious vid 🤣😂😂🤣😂😅 👍👍👍👍👍✌🏻
Checking out the damage while the thing is giving you the death beep. Leaving the battery plugged in. Luckily it didn't slap you in the chops.
the beginning was probably the most funniest thing i have ever seen
You screaming and helicopter doing chicken dace 😂😂😂😆🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣lol😃
I think the road was tilting and that probably caused the wobbling
A little hot glue will fix it 😂😂
Back on the days we used to called that the funky chicken dance 😂
Bro, the helicopter took the plunge for a mid career shift into free styling and break rotoring!
The intro was priceless. Awesome video, gracias
Nice. That a nice way to blast off . Now it fly like magic
Wow! Scary stuff! 😲 I was worried that blade pieces and spinning parts were gonna hit you guys. $500 is nothing as long as you guys are ok.👍🏼
Keep up the great work kev!😅👍
Hey man i love your content so so so much
Nonchalant sliding in of the EXB. I see you, Kev.
Helicopter turned into a really evil whip!
I have to say that's the longest lasting crash I seen of any RC helicopter. That thing was dancing around like a chicken with its head cut off
Hey Kev are you going to get the Arrma felony?
It looks absolutely EPIC.
Kev what do u do with ur lipos when not using them I just got a slash any suggestions
Nice video kev
I have to say this seems like exactly what would happen on this channel. It’s perfect! Lol! Great job! Love it!
flips into gps "flies like a drone"
he hasnt flown an acro drone it seems. Give it a try for me kev, love to see your power loops and barrell rolls!
shred the gnar boys, carry on!
Man, if you only remembered the kill switch, you had so much time to save it from too much damage.. seemed like a decent chopper to learn on too.
It looked to me like it was intentional.🤷♂
Lmao just watching that chopper die slowly oh noooo lol
When kev on rage mode😂😂😂
"it won't turn off"
* doesn't even try to flip the off switch *
That goatee is starting to look good man.
🤔🤔
@@Vinnyschannel🤨😑😁
Yeah!!! I also wanna buy one of this perfect RC´s. Looks like fun!
Ohhhh You got the limit edition break dancing one!
Kev:says to not laugh
Me:HAHAHAH
RUNAWAY!!!!!!!! Bring your face sheild for the next flight.
Kev you should try and review the other flysky transmitter and receiver they are on Banggood and amazon
I have an fs i6x and its really good.
I have the same thing I work great and it’s cheaper than Spectrum I use it on my ft p-40
That was great. Good thing you caught it on video.
Hey Kevin why don’t you have any losi cars
How do fly with a self centring throttle stick ? That's just plain weird if you want to learn to fly a normal non drone version of an RC heli.
kev;boom
noob;did it explode
Ah yes. The old "epileptic octopus" I have done that maneuver a few times :-)
Kev, you just hit 700k subs!!!
Hahaha the expensive chicken dance
I suspect it was because you tried to take off in 3d mode as it looks like it wanted to flip upside down as you throttled on ,could be why it vibrated gyros where confused . Does it say anything in the book about modes you have to take off in .
Dang Kev! You throw away $500+ like its nothing.
That was funny to watch but rip wallet!!
Kev I Want To Odder X Maxx But They Did Not Deliver In India Can You Help Me
You could go to a local hobbyshop
@@KPTGR8 Does one of 'em have a online shop?
Hey you are in India I am also in India .
I also wanted to buy a XMAXX 8s can you tell the cost of XMAXX 8s in India.
@@ratheesht3850 bro you fool even if you get one where you you plan on getting spares
Are you in Kerala I will get parts from Amazon
or any other online shopping. Can you tell what is the cost of XMAXX 8s .
GAME OVER for the heli..but when its gonna be over for beard
Would this be a good first helicopter I have experience with drones and planes
You didnt flick the stop switch - it was still on run
I got Traxxas hoss it just arrived at my local hobby shop
the enitre helicopter is damaged and snapped in 43 pieces.
Kevin Talbot: but other than that it's perfectly fine!
I don't mean to laugh at your expense Kevin but I could not help it! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time lol
Why the motor off switch wasn't used? I clearly see the GPS LED didn't turn green
I love the fact you have a flashy sports car but drive a fucking Rover, ha ha, British engineering at it's best, saying that it's in great condition for an 05 plate.
Dude please tell me that you hooked it up to your computer and did all the calibrations before flight???
I wonder if it wasn't level when "turning on" when the flopping incident occurred? Might be that it's doing calibration, and if you do that before setting it down the gyro will lock to that orientation and see it as "level". So then you got it trying to level itself to something that's wrongly calibrated, and that's when the hijinks begin.
