A beautiful scale turbine-powered heli has a hard landing at the 2007 ANZAC jet meeting held in Tokoroa NZ.

No major harm done, was flying again later in the day

  • this is how to know ...

    this is how to know whether the r/c pilot is bad:
    1)easy take off(anyone can do it),
    2)up and down only, no turns no maneuvers,
    3)BAD LANDINGS!
    what a waste of a good r/c chopper

    This pilot like a lot of scale heli fans spent more time building and tuning than practicing flying birds. I would advise him to train 30 minutes everyday on a simulator for a month. Then buy a very basic 50 size heli to train hovering face to him. After 2 months this pilot will amaze himself and others. He will then be able to master his beautiful turbine and make smooth and wonderful flights ! Good luck !

    Turbine was running fine, it looks like a newbie pilot dumped the throttle.

    Yay! I have far more money than piloting skills!
    Scale turbines are the domain of those who really like to spend loads of money on wonkey technology. Think about the computerization that keeps a real helo's jet turbine running - it is not there on a 'scale' model like this, and "running out of fuel"? Letting a pilot fly a moneytrap like this when he is not aware of the flight time limitations? I fly foam-made parkflyers with LiPos and even I know when to land. Kinda silly.

    Sounds like the turbine is spinning just fine after the pilot slammed it into the ground. I doesn't look like he/she is a good pilot anyways, lots of jerky movement and just hovering around. Next time get a video of it doing some high speed passes and actual flying.
