Hey. I used you vid to learn. now going back it looks like during your "continuous single piroflip".(3:55).. your doin a "full inverted" and a "half right side up" am i wrong?

[wrprince]

@poitka80 No they are full piros on both halves (though I do admit they are a bit sloppy so I can see why you asked.) Watch the stick and you'll see a full stir on both halves.

its too fast to understand, even in the slowed down part

needs to be 5x slower

[wrprince]

@andy765gtr there are no "slowed down parts" If you really think this is way too fast for you then you are not even close to being ready for piro flips anyways. You shouldn't even be thinking about piro flips until you can invert hover solid in all orientations and you should also have decent collective management skills. come back to this later...

@wrprince oh come on....some poeple are having fun with their simulators only. And extreme slowmo would help indeed, as it´s impossible to 1. listen to u, 2. watch the heli movement while 3.compare it to your stick movements at the very same milisecond. So one has to watch it several times. - Nevertheless, your instructions are an awesome enrichment here! Thanks a lot!

[wrprince]

@nothingfreeanymore no problem, I feel everyones pain. This is a very complicated maneuvar to perform and needs TONS of practice and an extensive background in basic skills. I expect you would want to watch the vid a few dozen times until you start to get a feel for what is being talked about. (Not trying to promote anything it's just the reality of it) Rip the video and watch it on your computer if you need to like Andy did. Cheers

Just to show you how hard it is to control, I have been doing half flips very controlled for about a month, which it took me 2-3 months to get, and I am just moving on to a mobius loop.

excellent tutorial, good practise during winter... :)

[HerbzVidz]

Thanks Raza! I watched this vid and learned the piro-flip in two days... Thanks, Brotha!

[TheJackjellybeans]

in order to do mobius loop do i need to learn how to half piro?

Wow! Thanks, great vid I learned the first half in 20 min on the sim now it's practice practice and more. Again thanks.

Thanks for the tutorial.  I also watched Bert's SmackTalkRC PiroFlip video. He gave a very clear explanation on what is happening for each 1/4 piro/flip which I like the most, but it is difficult to learn by following his approach. Yours is a lot easier and it becomes natural after many hours of practising.

Thanks for the lesson.

[funprise]

I think this is the best Piro flip tutorial video you can watch. Complete with half singles and doubles. Thats what got me confused. before but this surely cleared that up

1 to 2 years. It's going to be a while!
