The main blades spins always on the same direction. The angle off the blades can change from -10º to +10º - This means that when the angle is 0º, the heli does not create lift to go up. At +10º the heli have full power to lift and at -10º the heli send all the air to the top. When allowing to be inverted. Easy. Most of the RC helis can do that moves.

The mountains and the interface between the tarmac and grass are so artificial. Also the sound gives it away. The fat chopping does not correspond to the state of the helicopter. If you watch some real videos of RC choppers doing tricks you will understand what i am talking about. Also...The camera follows the helicopter perfectly it is never out of frame...like it knows it's next movement. This is a virtual space calibrated with the image from the real world.

I am not sure yet :) That could be very true there as the camera does seem to follow it quite fast, although it does still seem fairly possible. I am not sure yet :)

The camera work is not jerky enough for it to have been done at high speed... How can the cameraman guess which way the chopper will go? The answer is that he filmed it much slower...
