World's first longline with an elect. oper. magnetic coupling on a Blade 230 Smart RC helicopter?
It is possible my scale helicopter friends! This is the world's first rc helicopter in the 230 size with a longline with electrically operated magnet coupling.

If anyone would like to recreate this, I'm open to questions. In order to be able to fly with it, you obviously have to be able to fly above average. And only after a few weeks of daily training But it is possible as you can see. And it's great fun. Since I've been flying longline like this, I feel like a real helicopter pilot doing longline work with my heli. And to be honest, I'm about as exhausted after flying. It's pretty tiring. But fun. Both at the same time. Happy flying my friends! Stay safe!

Please update the video link. It's not working.
Unfortunately, there is no setting on YouTube where you can allow embedding for a specific website. Only allow it for everyone (which I don't want) or not at all. But to be honest, you can just click “watch on YouTube” and you will automatically be redirected to YouTube. So someone who is interested has to do two clicks instead of one click to watch the video. That should be within the realm of possibility, right? And those who can't click twice may not be interested enough in the topic at all.
You think the second click will prevent someone from watching the video? We normally won’t auto start a video in a modal automatically but let me see what is possible
We will be upgrading the site so the video plays automatically when the modal appears (vs having to click it again). Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback!
Yes, I think so. Thanks for trying to optimize this. Scrolling isn't working on the website at the moment. Perhaps you could take a look at the problem? I was only able to write this message by zooming in on the website very small.
