R/C Helicopter...

So, I was a school the other day, and this guy brings in this R/C helicopter. It was the coolest toy I have ever seen. Itwas all to scale, EC-135 (fenstron tail and all) and it was around 4 feet from nose to tail! Here's the cool part...it was turbine! I don't know if that's all that common but I've never seen that before. Runs on jet fuel and all. He started it up and it sounded exactly like the astar I am used to hearing! It was way cool. Has all kinds of computer controls. Very impressive and expensive toy! I asked him what something like that costs... he said around $10,000! And it doesn't come assembled! He had a body shop paint it. Man, it was cool and I just thought I'd share.

Happy Flying!
