BRAVO! My favorite 6HV video for sure! I love that style of flying! Big air, smooth transitons into "soft 3D", and very controlled! I can only stand to watch about 10-secs. of "crack 3D" and I am done.

Mercuriell, what kind of comments did Mr. Einstein offer about the heli?

Thanks for sharing this, I really enjoyed it!

I absolutely agree. I dont like the style that everyone seems to be into lately of stick banging. This style of flying looks far more impressive to me. Controlled, and doesn't give you a headache to watch! Great flying and thanks for the video!

Great Flying!

Not wanting for power is it.

It sounds like it is running at very high RPM and never bogs.

Actually HS is only 2050 - very modest for a 600E - it's virtue is its light weight (3.2kg) and duration - up to 8mins with 3300 packs.

Cheers guys and thanks John for the go.

I was amazed how small the 6HV is yet 600mm blades fit easily. Like John said it's like a slightly scaled up Atom.

It flew easily & with good authority. Imagine it with a higher HS! Due to its extra light weight I can see long flight times & excellent autos.

I took it easy like I always do when flying other people's helis plus everyone's setup is different. Waiting to see if other vids will be put up of myself flying my T-Rex 700E Vbar & will post here since you liked this vid so much.

Kev.

Wow. That motor was not straining at all, one of the big advantages of the lightweight design.

Amen to that!

Experience is something you gain only after you need it.
I wouldn't mind social media so much if it didn't involve people.

For the guys flying the 6HV: how's it auto? Y'all say how light it is, so I asume disk loading is pretty low. 50's don't get the best rap for auto-ing ability, so how does this heli rank?

Great flying Kev, it was so great to meet you in Hamilton. Your flying is awesome and you really hit that 700 in the Night Flying! You are a top bloke and we all were sad to see the Aussie contingent leave at the end of it all. What a great SmackDown!!
