@1234567890nam It's not rape if the heli liked it :P

[LarryCanFly]

Really Entertaining!  Thanks!

[RoboTekno]

@LarryCanFly haha, np. It was fun to make. Don't forget to check out my other project :D

[tonscordova]

[RoboTekno]

@b1bman Not as great as Bob's B1 Bomber, but thanks :D

[trlmdman]

Funny video. I want one.

[RoboTekno]

if you have a heli, pop open a coke and shove the heli in there. lol

[DadHav]

You're good young man!

Great blend of stop animation and real footage AND a unique idea! Flying Coke bottle.....so cool. I want to see more footage of that thing flying out side.

[RoboTekno]

I'll see what I can do :), I'll have to make another bottle body, I threw away the last one haha.

[unigene]

Very creative video. Was certainly a lot of work. Great!

[RoboTekno]

thanks, it only took about an hour or two. lots of trial and error though :D

[sunyee1972]

NICE

[VetteWay2Fast]

Nice Video!! Very good editing and transformation from heli to crazy flying bottle. Im still laughing writing this comment, nicely done. 5 stars

[RoboTekno]

thanks for the comment dude :)

[Zachary1080p]

choppa cola!

[Henal89]

hay man that really awsome nice video man

[mickshnal]

What a cool video, quite creative.

[RoboTekno]

Why thank you

[saitoking]

Very cool video

[PoppyLand1]

This video is off the charts! In this age of quick-n-easy, do-it-yerself CGI and flash animation, it makes me smile to see good, old fashioned stop-motion work that actually involved an animator touching something in the real world and patiently positioning and re-positioning the elements over and over.

And you actually gave credit where it was due to the artists whose music you've used? How many people on YouTube care enough to do that?

[PoppyLand1]

Seeing that wobbly coke bottle rolling precariously from side-to-side prior to lifting off, I was reminded of the blood-curdling blade-strikes that can result from a completely stock CX2 tipping over in a failed launch, so that was mighty impressive right there.

And then just seeing the thing in flight, it all took on an even more bizarre quality.

[PoppyLand1]

I've spent my life writing and doing various types of creative things, which often involves schmoozing and hobnobbing with pretentious, avant-garde intellectuals and artistic types. I know I could go to those people, tell them your video is a "postmodern, dadaist commentary on the crassness of our throw-away, consumer culture" or some such clap-trap, and they'd be eating out of my hands.

Heck, they'd prolly offer you a gallery showing or something.

[PoppyLand1]

Really, though, since it may actually be true that you've created a "postmodern, dadaist commentary on the crassness of our throw-away, consumer culture," and since your medium is YouTube, I think it only appropriate that you take this to the next level:

In keeping with the YouTube, viral-video meme of the moment, you need to create a flying diet-coke-with-Mentos attack-helicopter contraption.

[PoppyLand1]

It'll take a lot more horsepower than a CX2 has, but just think of it: An RC coke-bottle heli spewing an eruption of exploding Mentos out of its nose as if they were fifty caliber shells!

Why, I could convince my bohemian artsy friends that it was some kind of indictment of militarism or the war in Iraq or some such.

[RoboTekno]

u sure could PoppyLand1, u suuuure could. :P

[RoboTekno]

I think I'll actually try this someday.

[RoboTekno]

uh huh, u don't say.  :o

[RoboTekno]

why thank you.

[RoboTekno]

idk, but i don't want to be sued or n e thing. haha :P thanks for the comment though, it was my first stop motion actually.

[PoppyLand1]

Yeah, I know I sound a little manic. Too much coffee, perhaps. Not that I've said anything untrue. This clip is nicely done, the customization of the heli is on a George Barris or Andy Warhol level of insanity, and the piloting is skillful. Just givin' credit where it's due.

[uwanaugoda]

nice driving...but nothing i cant do...i have that same chooper im upgrading soon any suggestions?

[RoboTekno]

Umm, nice flying? Do u mean upgrading CX2 parts or going to a better heli? I'm on a CP Pro now if that's what ur asking about. Only used the CX2 to learn the controls. Don't buy a 400, T-rex or something, unless u want to waste a couple hundred bucks. haha I'd buy a CP or something similar. Once u learn a tail driven heli, u'll be fine after that. usually :P

[uwanaugoda]

ya i learned aand am quit skilled i mean buy a whole new chopper

[Cricket202]

great editing and thought-full video.

you do have too much free-time though

[knifeedge63]

thats sooo cool!! lol

[chowtv]

I love it. That is cool... makes me want to create a BCP "canopy" out of a 2 liter bottle. Nice editing too did that stop action take a while to do?

[RoboTekno]

Thanks. The "stop action" took about a half hour to an hour to make and put together.

[rchelifreak]

Excellent editing. Love it!

[RoboTekno]

thanks man, like 3rd time using Win. Movie Maker. btw, nice Trex vids

[buddah1240]

Very interesting and creative what with the costs of canopies these days.

Cheers

[RoboTekno]

thanx man, I did this for fun. I can't wait until I fix up my other heli, gonna put a two liter bottle on it. haha
