It’s so nice to see a helicopter being flown like a helicopter actually flies - instead of these ridiculous “3D” models that are flown upside down and doing acrobatics that no human body or machine could ever do in real life. Much respect to this guy for building a beautiful model and flying it right.

A very little, little bird. Just Fantastic.

Very impressive scale work. Without the people walking through the frame, you couldn't tell it was a model.

Luv the chopper's registration - 041OE "Oh for one naughty" - LOL

Impressive replica, great to see turbine powered model and full five blade rotor system on a model. Well done to the builder !!! and the RC pilot

Don't know how I missed this older video, but glad to see it. It is a beautiful helicopter and seems to fly quite nicely. A lot of work went into building that helicopter. Very well done.

props for actually flying it around....most people just do some B.S. hovering with models this expensive.....BRAVO!!

Those Hughes 500's just have a hell of a charming shape, don't they?

I used to build and fly model helis, I still have 5 ready to go and one junk heli that needs parts (hard to find). I never did turbine, the most popular turbine engine at the time, I think, was the Wren 44 which cost around $5000 USD back in 2012 or 2013. I opted to stick with the electric which costs under $200 for a motor.

I like how the heli waited politely for the plane to take off. A+ video... and by the way, that is one heck of a bird. 

THAT RITE THERE WAS SOME AWESOME FLYING! ONE NICE BIRD!

nice its not often you see 500E rc turbines on youtube with the proper main and tail rotor setup. mostly i see ones with 2 blade mains and tails when 5 blade mains and 4 blade tails looks more scale and probably flys more like a fullsize 500E.

Fantastic,what an awesome piece of engineering,superb flying skills,must be like trying to balance marble on point of a pencil.

My personal opinion, this is the most sexy heli ever.

MORE THAN WORTHY of being Blown Up by AIRWOLF !!! It's Beautiful !!!!

Lovely helicopter. Looks beautiful in the air. Bit expensive but looks way better in the air then a drone. Believe that chopper can lift a lot too. Good job! :)

Part of the thrill you get when RC flying is from the fear that you might crash! Especially after you land it in one piece - you get a sensation as if you want to high five yourself!

Without fail every time. 8 years later I hope like I, you still get that feeling. Blue skies

RIP Brett.. You built and flew wonderful helicopters

I wish I were that hamster lol that would be awesome. I've flown in a civilian helo and its like a magic carpet ride.

Looks and sounds awesome

only fools would condem such a creativity, period.

Dude, you almost can get into this heli... Great job!!!!

They should put two cats in the front seat as passengers..LOL!

You need to put a camera in that baby. awesome flying and coptor.

manjunk427 is right! Epic to see this one flying. So many vids are of "warm-ups" and "servo test" etc...

Little Bird - Like a BOSS!

Veeeery cool and turbine-powered, at that! Ought to be for the money, eh? {chuckle} A prime example of why I knoooow better than to get into such an "addiction" as r/c (I've too many irons in the fire as it is! LOL)! Always enjoyable vids, though, especially with the preflight prep and interviews. A nice way to enjoy my Sunday morning coffee! ;)

Boy, you could do a gross cartons of eggs with that beater! Nice!

You know you got money when you have an entire trailer just for your RC stuff

That thing does fly nice.

Major effort to bring to flight Iam sure, with few of us to give it a try...Many thanks enjoyed..

Nice Helicopter!

I remember back in the 60,s I saw a bell Heli,in the window of the hobby shop,about that size,I thought that was pretty cool.For the time It was probaly pretty advanced for the time,I could be wrong.

that's amazing.......it looks so real and perfect

excellent flight control and design

looks stunning...!

Wonderful! Theodore "T.C" Calvin would definitely approve.

awesome heli , nice build

That thing is beautiful!

looks amazing

What a Sweet Bonza little machine! Who the hell would click the thumbs down button??

Tokoroa? LOL that ain't too far from my neck o' the woods =^.^= Nice heli, by the way.

that is a sweet model!

a very smart baby could have real fun in this

wow the filming style hasn't changed a bit :D

That is pretty neat!

"i was having a good day with the R/C club, at the airfield, then I took a chopper blade to the knee..." :-/ All kidding aside, pretty amazing- great design detail, loads of power, so fast... very impressive !

I am currently building a 50 sized Century Mechanics, Hughes 500D Scale Helicopter. Nitro fuel....I would love to put a turbine in it......but my club won't allow them. It is an AWESOME hobby!!!!! ( but VERY, VERY EXPENSIVE)

skilfully flown

Very Nice WORK!!

Awesome,, just like the real thing but harder to fly no doubt !!!! Well done, I want one

Really nice video! You are a fantastic Pilot Enjoyed the flying! Marseilles, IL

bu helikopter muhteşem idare edenlerde çok güzel kumanda ediyorlar tebrikler

@xjet Whuff..! That's a SERIOUS Heligocopter Fantasy ! It's good it has a Civilian paint-job.. My old boss at Helicopter Promotions, Rosemary Arnold-Harris, was aboard the first Civilian Turbine Chopper (Hughes 500) on it's First US Transcontinental Flight... She had happy memories of the H-500... We flew an Enstrom F-28c, so maybe she had Turbine-Envy ? Ciao.

Very impressive.

@happyhouse152 That's so fast and stables, i love this one.

Just like the real thing! Only smaller!

very nice , thanks

A GoPro on it somewhere and you'd get the best bird eye view ever :) sooooooooo cool :) I want one :)

melvic4 you don't need to spend very much at all on an rc aircraft just to carry a gopro

You made it bearable.

Absolutely fantastic helicopter. Congratulations!! Unfortunately we couldn't understand a single word when the pilot spoke at the end of the video. It would be interesting to know more about this fantastic little machiner!!!

Needs the Magnum theme tune on this video. There was one of these in that show : )

hastasıyım bu makinelerin... :)

That thing could lift a baby!

Nice job

Beautiful

very beautiful toy

Wow that's an amazing ,well done......

Cool model !!!! just fine

$20,000, divorce material, that's a new bathroom right there haha.

the jet engine is not providing the thrust, it is only making the rotors turn, so the tilt of the blades IS actually what makes it move.

Spelled "Mcdonnell" Douglas wrong on the door lol.. Other than that..Sickest RC turbine MD500E i've seen in my life.

My favorite helicopter .awesome

Hey Bret nice flying

20 grand? Damn... That's sports car territory. Plus, you can get actual ultralight aircraft for that that take a quarter of the time to build. Powered Paragliders cost half as much. Taking that into consideration makes me feel like that remote control helicopter isn't a great investment..

This is so cool, but is so far out of my price range! I would love to build a nice BlackHawk, throughout the course of my R/C escapades, and use it for filming some cool R/C Adventures. Thumbs up!

Excellent!!!!!!

yery nice, good flight

Very cool!!

The MD 500 was developed from the Hughes 500, a civilian version of the US Army's OH-6A Cayuse/Loach. The series currently includes the MD 500E, MD 520N, and MD 530F. The MD 500E (369E) is the Executive version of the 500D with recontoured nose, Certified in 1982. The MD 530F (369F) Hot and high version of the 500E powered by an Allison 250-C30B rated at 650 shp (485 kW), certififed in 1985. The shapes are the same, the insides are different.

Killer stuff....wow !

Sooo nice.

Love it!!! Look like its real!

Nice work

So so cool

Would really love to build a 50 scale "Huey UH- 1D Iriqois".... fully detailed....YEESSSSS!!!

The model shown at the beginning of the video has a deflector at the exhaust, whereas the one actually flown does not have the deflector. It looks to me as the second part of the video was older than the first part...

Very Cool

Awesome!

Geez i wish my budget was as big as u guys

There was a cop chase movie in the '70's involving a little red n white 500 and some other bird which I never came to identify. It was titled"Birds of Prey" Some pretty good shots of the bird, even if the ending sucked.

Nice helicopter..I like this

I was trying to think of a way to describe it, charming seems to be the best way... somehow

@shooteraod This is a Vario Hughes 500E powered by a Jetcat PHT3. Research about vario and have a look at the other helicopters they have. This sort of model would cost upwards of $15000 with high quality equipment

Awesome Heli Great flight Obviously I'd love to have one, for now my Trex 600E in a AS 350 fuselage will do. Congrats !

@johnken62 Depends on how realistic you want it to look and many other things like radio gear and flybar controller. Could be between $13000-20000NZD
