:o Amazing!

If you ever see a real helicopter doing something like that, it probably has a serious problem. ;)

Because the design of the blades is slightly differant to the real thing, and because the power to weight ratio is also alot greater than the real thing.
Although i must say, the Lynx can go both upside down in a loop and snap backflip. And also do a barrel roll.
