Is it even possible to fly a real helicopter this way? Perhaps a jedi can? I can see where this young man has a future with covert military action. Imagine flying one of these babies into a enemy camp loaded with a surprise?
If we had engines powerful enough, maybe. Given the increase of drones instead of manned flights, it could make it easier to pull these kinds of maneuvers via remote control...It is indeed possible with the power to rate ratio in these small ones. I don't see it happening in life size/weight heli's.... but ain't it somethin'?
