Leaf Blower??

Who needs a little hand-held leaf blower when you have a helicopter? I saved my self 2+ hours of leaf raking this weekend by "rounding up" the leaves with the helicopter. The neighbors thought it was funny. Took about 5 minutes to get them in all inside my tree line around the house, where just a little raking time was needed. Didn't think about having anyone video it until after I was done. Maybe I'll get a chance again next weekend.

Gotta have fun with these things.

Doing this again this year, but I remembered to get a video of it this time. Below is about a 40 second clip that shows me clearing the back yard with the helicopter. If the viewing speed is too slow, right-click on the link and pick "Save Target As...", then save it to your computer and watch it from there.

Both videos are the same clip. Just one has a larger picture than the other.
