why couldnt he just come out of throttle hold, spool up and recover ?

[TheThunder512]

@michchristy he did... when you look close, you see the smoke out of the muffler.

[xxBombamanxx]

@michchristy

Curtis is makeing real blade stops. That means he is not putting the engine in throttle hold, he is switching the engine completely off. So he can't cheat during a blade stop ;-)

[nshamblin]

his crashes even look cool

[Feckerhead]

I fly exactly like this, not big on the crack 3d moves I'm big on finesse. If theirs a big open field and sky use it to its max. Excellent flying, I would have liked to see him pull that second auto.

[rodrigonewton]

I'm speechless.... The landing at 3:20 is simply the best I've ever seen !

[VortexNL]

@rodrigonewton There was this video of Alan szabo jr or something where his helicopter failed mid air and the recovery was just AMAZING :P

[HeliCrfCbrToyTacoman]

@rodrigonewton

bert kammerer smackdown alpine trex 700

best landing ever

[coontakintei]

wish you could do this with a full size helicopter, although there's been some badass people doing some crazy shit with them aswell.

[qeumaw]

so thats why you have ta fly wite electro and slow spool up off wite that stunt

[rcfreak96]

WOW!!!

[ghorpestad]

Great pilot. One of the best

[dddduuuu11]

daam its a freaking weapon in his hands :S

O.O

[Stoele91]

What a skilled man! :O

[BobbyDigitaly]

HEFTIG!



[maverickthebastard]

Its a trick, granted, but the blades were supposed to spool up again, heli was at the wrong attitude for negative pitch to bite and respool. Its the risk you take with a blade stop, I've even known both blades to fold back on themselves with the same result.

Youngblood's a damm good flyer!

[tobitobiist]

wen der blad stop nicht perfekt war xD

[MegaAirRivals]

It looks like the fuel pump was broken/didnt work properly.

[girrocks12345]

@MegaAirRivals He did this on purpose...it's a trick.

[m3lyc]

@MegaAirRivals Nitro rc's don't have fuel pumps. They work on exhaust pressure, which is how the fuel gets forced to the carburettor.

[illbeda1974]

lot of yappers in the crowd,cool flying.

[azezrtyuuiopqsdfghjk]

Softstart and autorotations are a very good combination to go later to the RC shop to buy a new T-rex

[maxxum25]

Thedaveyht3 , who makes/promotes the Vibe series?

[betofazzo]

Too much beers haha...

[KDanagger]

I think you actually need it to do a slow tumble in order to get the blades restarted. Once the blades stop and the goes nose down, there is little you can do but wait for it to tumble just right and then try applying full pitch to get'em spinning again.

He tried to save it by dropping throttle hold at the last second, but waited a little to long.

[MikeIntegra00]

Good try Curtis. No it has nothing to do with the Trex cliptorisque. This is Curtis move. He was suppose to land the heli with the blades dead in the air as u saw when they stopped. He cuts it off and lands the heli.. usually. Never seen him crash it on that move till this video.

I also thought he was sponsored by JR.. Maybe not anymore or just Radios?

[childsca]

Damn, so close to saving it. Spectacular trick when it goes right, but when it goes wrong...

[pofrani]

curtis is still awesome!!!

how come he's flying a trex? i thought he was sponsored by JR?

[pofrani]

@TheDaveyht3

planet earth unfortunately...

i thought JR sells the vigor helis?

[monsterman440]

@TheDaveyht3 JR does make Helis.... what rock have you been under?

[MESTREVIPER]

hehehe, nao acredito!! o CURTIS cometeu 1 erro tao basico!!!! CG ERRADO!!!

[cliptorisque]

no just broke the main pignon during the Kaos.....its happen a lot on this 700 t-rex....

just hear the song during the kaos....

[cody3580]

just think, he took off throttle hold....inverted......and almost saved it.....damn

[justinRkeaton]

LOL, nice

[Slyster77]

So what actually happened? Lost a link?

[Gamah1991]

He did a blade stop... and failed to restart the blades. Heli was too vertical.

[c0ldfr33z3r]

Just was tumbling too much.You can restart the blades if you get it just right.Very hard trick.

[Gamah1991]

Curtis can run!

[Bulius01]

nice. autorotation is good when you now what are you doing.

[psindrup]

And you don't think Curtis Yongblood knows what he is doing? :-) You obviously don't know who he is. lol
