Search Bo105 of youtube. There are some amazing terrain following demos as well.

When did red bull start sponsoring helis too?

Deb- Thanks for the vid dude! Anyone know how much negative full scale choppers have? I wonder how much would be required to sustain an inverted hover?

I would -think- (like RC helis) it would depend on how you enter inverted. If you go slow and easy you can get away with "relatively little".

-4 or -6 degrees maybe?

That's awesome! It's funny to read the Youtube comments though. It reminds me of some 3rd graders sometimes...

They have to keep positive pitch the whole time so the blades don't hit the tailboom. Full size blades are a whole lot more flexible than the RC ones.
