His opinion is noted. As is the likely basis for him holding it. Either
he is a little girl mentally....or the idea of a privately owned remote

comment about it shooting the pilot in the head.


Or maybe he knows more about RC helicopters than you do.


Virtually any serious shooter..life long gun buff would have a woody
over that toy.


So why don't you build one?


Do you know that I have, or have not?


VBG


No, I don't. And I don't think I'd believe you if you said you did,
nor would I believe you if you said you didn't.


Btw..Ive about 500 *hours in Rangers, Hillers and so forth.


As a passenger, as PIC, or in your dreams. What license do you hold,
and why aren't you earning a living with it? Rotary pilots are in
demand these days.


Right seat of course. *Though Left Seat did tend to nap a lot. Shrug.

You certainly try to cast the worst *you can, doncha? PIC? *Did I ever
claim to be a chopper Pilot?


Generally, in the aviation community, saying "I have xxx hours in yyy
aircraft" refers to time in you logbook. Loggable time would be PIC,
student, or as an FAA required crew member. You were none of the
above. As usual.




And what does your time in "Rangers, Hillers and so forth" have to do
with radio controlled helicopters? Zero, that's what. If you think
that any real-world knowledge of full-sized aircraft operation
translates to RC models, you're sadly mistaken.


Did I claim it did? *Chuckle..dangling the hook in front of you is soooo
rewarding.
Laugh laugh laugh


You brought it up, moron.

Btw..how much rotary time in real helos do you have?


Zero, and I never claimed otherwise.

Or have you always been a toy pilot?


Nope. Between me and my brothers, we have two private pilot licenses,
two seaplane ratings, one instrument rating, one glider rating and one
glider instructor's certificate. I have spent a LOT of time around
aircraft.

I haven't "always" been a toy pilot, but I was a founding member of
the County model airplane society which built a fully AMA sanctioned
500' paved runway and seaplane dock.

I have also designed remote controlled video equipment both for toys
and for operations in hazardous environments. I can tell you with
certainty that the requirements are not even a little bit similar.
