Picking up on your comment about the Realflight fake controller Richard, of course it doesn't have an optional gimbal set-up, doesn't trim very well and has no provision for playing with expo, throttle curves, timer etc etc etc. At least my DX7 should be able to 'do its thing' with Phoenix :-) Gotta go with Richard folks, while it's raining, you're fed up with the tv, haven't anything to read - fly the sim until the sight of it makes you vomit (and that's just from a 'plank' aspect). :-)
Further to my earlier post, a Phoenix sim is top of the shopping list after the HK500GT (the 'outdoor' helo) arrives on the doorstep in the next few days.
Just wanted to say that as a 'planker' switching to 'twirling', I'm finding these videos both interesting and informative. Two points - rudder/tail rotor, perhaps a simpler way of saying what this does is that its a corrective tool (too much input equals a mistake not a correction); second, choice of sim - RealFlight and W7 don't like each other when it comes to helis!! I practise on an MSR indoors rather than use the sim (which is fab for the 'planks' incidentally!).
Su sir deserve being called Teacher !!! So what flight simulator you consider de best ? I have the AeroFly Pro Deluxe and Im not good a it , BTW I use a PS3 controller (maybe thats why) because Im getting my Heli next week
I am using Phoenix Flight Sim, but am frustrated I cannot get multiplayer to work behind my router. It is a pretty realistic flight sim though. I use it a lot!
Dude, your wicked! Iove the homemade sing as your back drop:) Um, The viewers here in Miami would prefer you use a real heli to show us and not that stick and card gadget?We don't think that's FAA approved device..Also when I attached a dvd to my Blade400 it didn't fly as well? Cheers~Janick
i started flyin helicopters bout a month ago got the hoverin down jus need to learn the rest i've had it a month but only flyin for bout 2 weeks as had to wait for parts :( but these vids are really help full thanks for ya time in making these for free thanks alot mate
before you move to lazy eight or figure eight maneuver, it help in term of confidence if you master both the right n left side hovering first. meaning, you are comfortable with hovering n moving ur heli side ways. good vid there man. keep it up.
Are heli's hard to fly? I'm scared to start, and will I be able to do professional competitions soon if I start now?

Thanks for the praise. The vids are not very polished, but they are free. I am really glad to be able to help people learn.
