Ok, so the awesome Aldi r/c helicopter has been bought. However, I was lying awake the other night thinking this one over. If I was to be hovering the helicopter in my car, and I drive off, what happens? Does the chopper stay static in the car or hit the back window? And what happens if I put the roof down?

Aaarrrghh!

Ah, but if you try and fly the chopper outside, it gets blown around by the wind. So it's hovering in a static piece of air. So if that air also moves forward with the car (accelerating very slowly) will the chopper come with it? Or, put it another way, if I'm driving down the motorway at a steady 70mph, with the chopper, rotors turning, in my hand, and I let it go, will it really hit a rear seat passenger in the face at 70mph?

Tricky eh?
