Re: anybody ever go helicopter fishing?

my first thought was, what kind of bait do you use to catch a helicopter?

2nd thought, Do you need a license and is there a limit to how many helicopters you can keep?

That being said, it was funny and did take flying skills I certainly do not have.

Well, being an electric RC helicopter pilot of a helicopter smaller than the Blade 400 (mine is made by the same company, but is the Blade CP Pro 2) I can say that what he is doing there is actually the easiest thing to do with a RC heli and the bigger, the easier it is. Mine has been said to be the hardest rc heli to fly, period. Part of that is because of its size, the other the fact that it's a high performance 3D heli. He's simply hovering it with the tail facing him. That's easy. I learned to do that within a few days of first picking up a heli controller.

He didn't even REALLY risk his heli because he had the floats on it. It looks cool, but really not that hard to do. Nice vid though.
