RC Helicopter FISHING! Dave tries hand at "Heli Fishing"
See: http://www.metacafe.com/w/1475576 for a clearer version.
I thought "zooming in" on the results would be better on this video, but the NON ZOOMING VERSION on Metacafe may be better for you to see what happend.
Risking my E-Flite Blade 400 for some entertainment,(even if you don't believe it), I doubt most others would risk their $450 heli just to hover over the water, let alone dangle a line!
(It was obviously all done with mirrors for you non-believers) This scenerio shows it is possible to use the Helicopter for fishing, however it would be expensive fish.
It helps to have lots of fish, like in our Sand Pit Pond that bite on hooks with no bait.
Hey, you never know, if you don't try!
***Caution from past experience***
Tail rotor hitting water will immediately cause crash.
Big fish can drain battery fast. Sunfish are not big fighters.
Fly easy and thanks for watching and finding this entertaining.
