I can do that in a real helicopter. Ofcourse "real" would be on my computer.

They should put a mouse in the chopper and see how it ends up.

I know a guy who has one of those things and simply its yes, a real chopper can't because of the weight and the force of the engine, but those RC choppers are basically only servo's and a engine, so it carries itself and a bit of plastic, it can easily fly upsidedown, with a bit of your own skill of course 
I don't have any

it can do a loop - but to fly upside down it would have to reverse the throtle a guess

yea it can. when you get it upside down you have to just completely reverse the angle of the chopper blades, so they push in the opposite direction

The Apache AH-64 can actually fly for a very small time upside down because it has actuating blades (reverses the blades)

It's true that a modern combat helicopter can carry out some of these RC choppers manoeuvres for a short period of time, but the majority of them pull too much G's for humans, a real pilot would fall instantly into the G-Lock.
