There is a helicopter show this weekend in the Rochester, NY area and it was organized by Ray Stacy, a VR member. His son placed fourth in the world helicopter championships this year. That is quite an achievement for a young man. Congratulations to him.

 

He was featured on the local news channel tonight.

Nice job, Ray and I'm sure you are very proud of your son.

Thanks Jim.

I am very proud of Kyle.

The event was a huge success.

My blue 89 was just to the right of the camera but I couldn't get the camera man to pan over to it.

Awesome flight control, I wouldn't dare to think a rotary wing could pull off those types of aerobatics. (I wonder how he can visualize upside down and backwards? With forward-inverted flight and backwards-inverted my way of thinking the main rotors just flap & fold up as you attempt to roll inverted!) I know that most of the R/C's have a rigid main-rotor to pull off that semi-inverted banking he's doing, while moving aft!?

 

I don't know if I want him in my right seat or not, cause I think he'd make me sick.

That is some awesome flying, I know I couldn't do it! Congrart's to finish that high in a world competition is just amazing, cause I bet there wasn't much between 1st & 5th.
