Helicopters of any scale should always be accompanied by "Ride of the Valkyries" as a soundtrack.

Looks like you all had some fun, though.

Potentially, the ultimate cat toy.

But first, modify with a small laser pointer. Hours upon hours of delicious feline torture.

Heheh. That's not torture to them.

My incessant baby-talk, possibly.

Yea. My cat tried to catch mine as it took off until the rotor blades hit him in his paws.

In my case the Ride of the Valkyries wouldn't get beyond the first few notes ever because I always crash those things seconds after takeoff. They're pretty hard to do, at least the ones I've tried.

There are actually people who do that with model helis ( the full blown big ones) They get paid to take areial photos and video of things like small sports events, store grand openings, and landscapes. Far cheaper than using the real deal.
