Sheezus... If the camera is so many frames a second, and the blades are moving at so many rotations a second, then it gives the illusion that the rotor blades are barely moving around. It's an illusion. Duh.

Guys its not fake You could see the wind on the ground when it got closer.

@smithraymond09029 might as well cuz im retarded.

[smithraymond09029]

@fullyAsianeric There is a trained gopher pulling the string. Do I need to explain EVERYTHING?

[fullyAsianeric]

@smithraymond09029 how is the camera upside down ? and there's lack of a human being holding strings under the heli.

meh could be fake. but i think its just the frames creating an illusion

[smithraymond09029]

@fullyAsianeric The camera is upside down and they are pulling it towards the ground. Hello!?!?

[fullyAsianeric]

@smithraymond09029 how can there be fishing wire if the main rotors constantly spinning ? lol

[smithraymond09029]

Look carefully: you can see the fishing wire it's hanging from.

that was a great landing but you are completely wrong. i've seen r/c pilots autorotate inverted within a foot or so of the ground then pop back over still without power to land just as smoothly. some also fly inverted so steady to skim the blades on a pond without ruining it.

not even the best rc pilot in the worrld can land like that nice
