What fun do you have if you do not need to control the rc helicopter??
I like to fly my helicopter with my control, this is why I got myself a
walkera no. 60 rc helicopter -

$300+ will buy a lot of repair parts.. Besides, what's the fun in not
risking the model?

A good thing for photographic applications I'd say, and probably not a bad
idea for making "in cabin" vids. Normally a "pilot controlled" vid from
inside the cabin (or a cam strapped to the skids) is almost enough to make
you throw up.

Hell, all I have to do is imagine the Queen naked to manage that. :)

That's just not right. Even worse is you've kept them!!

I can't imagine finding anything much better.

The only other possibility would be the "Co-pilot", but I doubt it's as good
as the Cherman unit.

Someone tried one of these in our club a while ago. It was a pain to
setup and managed to crash his model for him. Looks as though it might work
on the same principle as the Co-pilot (IR sensors looking for the horizon).
