Dave your videos and tips have been great and entertainment and education for the last year. I started with Blade MSR then Blade SR. I have learned a lot from you and look forward to more from you. Thank you and keep up the great work.
wow omg you worked on blue thunder!!! that was my favorite movie when i was younger. i had it in tape and played it till it no longer worked. now i have it on dvd. you are the man!!
awsome i wouldent mind getting a lesson from you man! but i live in holland so thats kind of an problem .... oh well youtube helps lol i learned a lot from watching your vids and enjoy them a lot thanks for taking the effort of making them for us :) and this is it im subscribing lol
Hi Dave, wow what a very good idea! I bet you have made a few RC fliers for the future! Your CH46 looks to fly very well! looking at the video was it made with Pinnacle Studio 12? very well done
Gosh i wish i could have someone come and fly /teach about rc helicopters. i love doing stuff like that and i think it woulda been cool to have someone come and do it along with us much like you did. maybe even have a student that understands helicopters come and fly it along with ya LOL Great vid.
Cause most people who ask me that usually cant fly helicopters upright very well. I was flying inverted long ago without gyros even but don't show it much of it today, as the heavy winds we fly in, make flying Kleenex helicopters difficult. I prefer a heavier gas helicopter with some momentum. I don't think unusual flying is very scale, which is what I really like.
Just flying a helicopter they way they were designed it good enough for those kids. Inverted is exotic when they dont even understand how they fly normally.
@NightFlyyer Well... it's not so difficult to explain how 3D works... You only have to show that the Blades force the air to go up and as a result of "actio et reactio" the Heli will move up - if it's already uside down!
I, too wish some1 like you could have come to my school and gave a class like tht when I was a kid. I would have been thrilled to death to watch! You are the closest thing I have (and apparently a lot of others here as well) to an actual instructor. Without your vids, many of us would be on our own and frankly, lost. Thanks Dave!
Lucky kids.I wish someone,or Herbie, would have come to my school when I was a kid.But thats along time ago and electric helis was nothing like they are today.
There are old pilots and bold pilots, but no old bold pilots. When I am dealing with kids, etc, I play it safe. Besides it is too difficult to see in that gym with all the hoops for me at my age, so I save it for outside. You can see it fly in my other vids and this summer I will wring it out. Since snow hit, I have not had a chance to fly it outside. I always do that stuff outside first, testing the equipment before inside with spectators. They were impressed enough.
They have lots of torque for sure, as you can see and hear. That motor is no bigger than a standard size spool of thread. It sure impresses me too. Thanks for the kind comments.
Yep, there are these kinds of schools, thankfully. The rule is learn to use that left stick to keep the nose pointing away from you, til you get it all sorted out, no matter what it takes. The second rule, is to memorize my 9 heli flying tips and rules of thumb. I used 2 editors to make this movie. Pinnacle Studio 11 plus and Magix Movie Edit Pro 14
great video. i always enjoy seeing what you're up to. i love seeing the hobby grow and you continue to take it to new audiences. those kids were very interested and i have kids that age so i know how hard that is to do. keep up the good work. looks like you're having fun.
Dave that was great. Those kids loved you and that's great for the hobby and for them. Well done mate, you really are a credit to our hobby.
To jbrannon69, I'd get that tx checked out, also check your swash is level, unplug the motor and make sure it's not moving when you push up, I've noticed my B400 tends to want to fly backwards unless it's trimmed a little forward.
That was amazing to pass on your knowledge like thet, I have 4 new pilots that I am training using buddy box system right now, not as exciting as your day. But I have a shit load of fun doing it with the really new guy. And it should be said you need a pill pot full of prozak for afterwards,,,lol
good job dave and help i got a blade400 for christmas and the radio is out so bad i cant fly when i give it power it tilts the rotor back so it flys back at you do you know what is wrong?
Thanks and congrats. The controls on the TX must be set up wrong. It sounds like it is a Mode one transmitter, and needs to be switched to mode II. Those are all test flown at the factory, so maybe someone messed with the tx programing at the hobby shop.
Nice man good work! I love your fishing with the helicopter, those guys dont know anything mate good work! Be sure to accept my friend invite and subscribe to me mate?
i sure wish there was someone like you when i was in school. this type of learning is great for young and old. it makes you want to learn amd grow.you realy are great and passing it along to others( including myself).thank you and happy holidays. bill & deb 5s
Dave as far as I can work things out by reading some of the comments, man you should be paid to do what you do. You have years of knowlege and experience and I would pay for that! Others who have a problem with it are just jelous! Keep going with the vids, they are some of the best on this hobby. Cheers.
Thanks very much. Well, if someone learns to fly with less difficulty than it took me and the rest of us old pioneers took in the beginning, that is all I ask. I appreciate your comments very much. Sometimes I get models to test and I get to keep them, so that isnt too bad either.
Thanks kindly. Yes, it isnt that the Blue ray would not be able to do it or even me, but the fact that there were 6 basketball hoops out and the way I have seen things go wrong, I was not going to take any unessessary chances with those kids around. As we all know, S**t happens. It was effective enough, anyway.
Great video Dave. Don't listen to the idiot below. If you get commision on selling helis then it is well deserved. The more people that get into our great hobby the better. The fun of flight is something I wish everyone enjoyed.(My wife included!!! haha)
Quick question - When are you going to make a vid of you taking that blue ray upside down. I don't know if I have seen a true 3d video from you yet! :) Merry Christmas!
Haha.Thanks. You can read my reply back to him to see my response. LOL. Its okay. I have just really only gotten about 10 flights on BR and it is bitter cold. Soon as I get some nice spring time weather, Ill do some 3D stuff after getting used to it a little better. And one thing I learned over the years of flying helis, is that I always went home with mine (well mostly, LOL) and my friends did not, because they were a bit bold. I like keeping my stuff intact so am more patient these days,LOL
thats it dave target marketing just like the tobaco co. used to be able to do. kids have there parents disposable income, as long as you get the commission. RIGHT! happy menoreh.
Bitter. Your soo bitter. I get no commission from xheli, only helis to test. If they work, I will say so, if they dont, I will say so. In this case your comment is irreverent to the movie anyway, as I am truly trying to inspire these kids minds with something they know nothing about. If someone in that class someday comes up with a new kind of helicopter or battery, then that is the point. Your comments are mute and shame on you.
Yes, well, they are really about the same in the Coaxial version. This CH 46 is really easy, but a little intimidating with all the wind, etc. Also it is harder to tell whether it is coming or going. LOL
What an opportunity to expand the field of RC. You should also tezch them about jets and how they work. Exceed has a couple of EDF jets that would blow their mind. Keep this up.
Yeah, I have been flying for 5 weeks and I can do inverted hovering and loops already. I got a sim for christmas and it helps alot. I know what your thinking, I should NOT be learning to fly with a cp2 as my first rc aircraft. But I found it to be a resonable choice.
Great. Well only 4% of the people trying to learn helis ever advance to being able to fly short circuits around (average time, 1 year) let alone inverted flying, so good for you, as there is always exceptions.
Congratulations on another great video. I like many others wish the technology would have been around when I was in school to have a class like that. Luckily we have it now. Happy flying and the happiest of holidays to you and yours.
Yet another excellent video and act for life. Five stars.
Im glad you didn't dare do much 3d inside the gym near the kids! Also, consider improving video quality (i.e. resolution), we like seeing details (i have seen very high quality videos here on YouTube)
Thanks kindly. Having had to keep a gas helicopter from going into a crowd (by kicking it and breaking 4 bones in my foot) as it flew by, leanring a lesson years ago, I sure did not want to take that chance here either, even though I have AMA insurance. I shot this all in HD using a Canon DVD cam, but due to YT practice (17 MB for 10 Minutes reg and 34 MB for HQ) it sure gets degraded. But very short videos are always way better too. Did you try it in HQ?
Yes and especially as compared to all the schools I went to in California for sure. But now I live in a small town community and as you can see, it has it's advantages and the kids seemed more attentive than what I remember from my school. LOL.
Nice work Dave! Wow, I wish I would have had a class like that when I was that age (technology permitting). Good job on educating those kids on something they would otherwise never learn about in school.
Jeff, nice work on the camera. The video came out great.
Jeff always does great work on the camera. Dave is great with the flying, editing, sound effects, etc. but Jeff gives him the actual great footage to work with. Way to go, Jeff, you are hereby recognized appreciated. =)
I absolutely HATE you and your love for spamming, macintosh and beta channels. Do the world a favor. Get the f off YouTube. You are making the world a more difficult place to live in.
Great work Dave helping teach the kids about how helis work. The kids really appreciate it too. Their enthusiasm is contagious and it energizing just to work with them. Thanks for the vid.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You know you are a excellent heli pilot, but you cant seem to talk about anything else but yourself. Ego gets a new meaning when it comes to your videos. Just my two cents. You will probably delete this or your 10-12 year old subs will bash me to death for saying it, but it rings some truth in it. First and last comment to you Mr. Herbert.
You are absolutely correct hilitereel. And I can also give kind or cruel criticism to no end on this, but to break it down into simpler terms for you. I brought up a point, and now I am dropping it. Good day to you sir.
Your point has nothing to do with the content of this video and this is not the place to start arguing over what you think you know, but dont. Good day and good by
If you even knew the things Mr. Herbert has done...inventor the the first tail rotorless helicopter, inventor of the first electric tail rotor motor. (etrm) And to fly a jet in the movie Blue Thunder. Not to mention being able to fly helicopters like he does. Something not very many people can do. I think jealous gets a new meaning when it comes to your comments. Good day to you sir.
I never said that Mr. Herbert wasnt doing a good job with his RC videos. I gave some honest input and expected my comment to have some repercussions. If you cannot take some criticism to hone the edge a little then pack up and go home. And jealous is a offensive term, but I will take it kindly from you since you are Mr. Herbert's protege. Good day to Winston.
Excellent!!! You are a very good teacher Mr. Herbert! I think everybody had a good time and learned a thing or two. Are we going back in the spring for some outside flying? We might have to clear the parking lot and demonstrate a few jets and some 3D flying. Great job!!!
So very cool, I was surprised with the seeming interest in the kids, You had a good few groups of them. I was hoping you'd end up breaking out some cheap havocs or something to let the kids fly a bit, but you did an excellent job, I wish we had that kind of class in school.
Tell your radiation Science teacher you would like to see some helicopter Physics and invent a nuclear battery or hydrogen fuel cells for model helicopters. LOL. Good luck and thanks for your comments.
Thanks. I sure hope so. I hope they are inspired to come up with hydrogen fuel cells for models or nuclear batteries or something. Thanks again for your kind words.
Dave your videos and tips have been great and entertainment and education for the last year. I started with Blade MSR then Blade SR. I have learned a lot from you and look forward to more from you. Thank you and keep up the great work.

thats a small class
son8god8damn 3 years ago
Yes and especially as compared to all the schools I went to in California for sure. But now I live in a small town community and as you can see, it has it's advantages and the kids seemed more attentive than what I remember from my school. LOL.

Nice work Dave! Wow, I wish I would have had a class like that when I was that age (technology permitting). Good job on educating those kids on something they would otherwise never learn about in school.
Jeff, nice work on the camera. The video came out great.

Jeff always does great work on the camera. Dave is great with the flying, editing, sound effects, etc. but Jeff gives him the actual great footage to work with. Way to go, Jeff, you are hereby recognized appreciated. =)

I absolutely HATE you and your love for spamming, macintosh and beta channels. Do the world a favor. Get the f off YouTube. You are making the world a more difficult place to live in.

Way to go Dave, sharing your experiences with those kids is sure to inspire!
Perhaps I'll also volunteer my time someday (once I get a roun'tuit).

Great work Dave helping teach the kids about how helis work. The kids really appreciate it too. Their enthusiasm is contagious and it energizing just to work with them. Thanks for the vid.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
You know you are a excellent heli pilot, but you cant seem to talk about anything else but yourself. Ego gets a new meaning when it comes to your videos. Just my two cents. You will probably delete this or your 10-12 year old subs will bash me to death for saying it, but it rings some truth in it. First and last comment to you Mr. Herbert.
Bradfordhere 3 years ago
Well its his channel, he can do as he pleases, the man obviously loves sharing knowledge, that's what the internet is about.
thehilitereel 3 years ago 2
Very true. Im just trying to help. I dont need anything else.
NightFlyyer 3 years ago
You are absolutely correct hilitereel. And I can also give kind or cruel criticism to no end on this, but to break it down into simpler terms for you. I brought up a point, and now I am dropping it. Good day to you sir.
Bradfordhere 3 years ago
Your point has nothing to do with the content of this video and this is not the place to start arguing over what you think you know, but dont. Good day and good by
NightFlyyer 3 years ago
Yep, that is why I get the big bucks.
NightFlyyer 3 years ago
If you even knew the things Mr. Herbert has done...inventor the the first tail rotorless helicopter, inventor of the first electric tail rotor motor. (etrm) And to fly a jet in the movie Blue Thunder. Not to mention being able to fly helicopters like he does. Something not very many people can do. I think jealous gets a new meaning when it comes to your comments. Good day to you sir.
Winston51249 3 years ago
I never said that Mr. Herbert wasnt doing a good job with his RC videos. I gave some honest input and expected my comment to have some repercussions. If you cannot take some criticism to hone the edge a little then pack up and go home. And jealous is a offensive term, but I will take it kindly from you since you are Mr. Herbert's protege. Good day to Winston.

You are making rude and foolish comments. Shame on you.

Brdfordhere is a jive turkey. You're just jealous you can't fly, being a turkey and all.

Excellent!!! You are a very good teacher Mr. Herbert! I think everybody had a good time and learned a thing or two. Are we going back in the spring for some outside flying? We might have to clear the parking lot and demonstrate a few jets and some 3D flying. Great job!!!
Winston51249 3 years ago
Thanks Jeff. You did a wonderful Job with the video too. I like the jet idea.

So very cool, I was surprised with the seeming interest in the kids, You had a good few groups of them. I was hoping you'd end up breaking out some cheap havocs or something to let the kids fly a bit, but you did an excellent job, I wish we had that kind of class in school.
