This Dark Blade 3-Channel R/C Helicopter from ThinkGeek “has dual rotors on the top which spin in opposite directions; these opposite spinning blades cancel out uncontrolled torque making for incredibly stable flight.” Product page. Video after the jump.
For forward and reverse motion the tail rotor then blows up or down, pitching the copter forward or backward and causing it to move in that direction. It’s a great control system and a pleasure to fly.
