Something you notice right away about Curtis flying, he flies lines, big maneuvers hooked together to create interesting patterns of movement. A lot of guys just string complicated tricks together, Curtis flies the aircraft in a much more artistic fashion IMO. He is not alone in this there are other good 'line' pilots but he is among the best hands down.
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!
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.
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?

@MegaAirRivals Nitro rc's don't have fuel pumps. They work on exhaust pressure, which is how the fuel gets forced to the carburettor.
Softstart and autorotations are a very good combination to go later to the RC shop to buy a new T-rex
Damn, so close to saving it. Spectacular trick when it goes right, but when it goes wrong...

@rodrigonewton There was this video of Alan szabo jr or something where his helicopter failed mid air and the recovery was just AMAZING :P
@michchristy he did... when you look close, you see the smoke out of the muffler.
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....
Thedaveyht3 , who makes/promotes the Vibe series?
@TheDaveyht3 JR does make Helis.... what rock have you been under?

nice. autorotation is good when you now what are you doing.
Curtis can run!
He did a blade stop... and failed to restart the blades. Heli was too vertical.
@rodrigonewton
bert kammerer smackdown alpine trex 700
best landing ever
daam its a freaking weapon in his hands :S
O.O
looks like he tried to power up the blades again at the end
LOWER !
@MegaAirRivals He did this on purpose...it's a trick.
why couldnt he just come out of throttle hold, spool up and recover ?
Amazing skill no doubt about that but sheez after about 2 mins of watching it's boring !.....next:-)
Looked like he grabbed some air just before the crash. If he had 15 more meters...
wen der blad stop nicht perfekt war xD
WOW!!!
Tja da hatte er die mühle nicht mehr anbekommen
Too much beers haha...
This landing is better! : /watch?v=yY34aHbzvhY
Skip to 10:11 and watch a sick inverted autorotation landing!
id cry
And you don't think Curtis Yongblood knows what he is doing? :-) You obviously don't know who he is. lol
Peter
He crashes and all these jerks do is laugh.
LOL, nice
So, what was special here? Every time the same moves. And sponored by Freakware? lol xD
Where exactly in the title does it say "special"? The video is about a failed blade stop. If you want "special" look in the mirror.
I'm sorry but this is terrible looking flying. This thing doesn't look smooth at all.
