Inverted FP Heli

World's first Honey Bee FP inverted flight? Slightly modified HBFP with Lama canopy, low rider landing gear and titanium tail boom with a bend. Lands fine in the ceiling.
May look risky, but the shortened light blades are pretty harmless.

The superskids are heavy, so I guess it will be harder with them on the top..

why the yaw is a 45°?

[jorgenr42]

Having the tail rotor closer to the center of the main rotor makes it more stable, and you can have lo'rider landing gear legs when flying the proper way..

Hi Jorgen,

Do you know if Bengt is flying with all his transmitter functions directional configured for standard 3D flight or if some are set as normal hovering flight? My AXE EZ is using incorrect throttle (works the same as normal-side-up flight) and ail, elev and yaw are still the same direction for "correct" inverted flight. Makes for difficult inverted practice when the throttle acts as it would for right-side-up flight. Confused? XD

[jorgenr42]

The setup is as follows; blades and paddles turned, motor reversed, tail rotor turned 180* around, receiver/gyro turned 180*, elevator reversed on transmitter.

Then everything is as normal as it can be =)

I gotta do this one of these days! Cool vid!

So how does it take off, by hand launch?

[jorgenr42]

Hand launch, yes - and landings can sometimes be expensive..

beLLISSIMO....NICE nice fly :)))

[rcstefy]

Thanks!!

Is possibile inverted flight whith superskids?

[StormyMaxPerry]

OK, so it's handling qualities are the same as if stock, IE: right-side-up configuration. If I'm reading you correctly. That's "cheating" lol!!

HAHA!!LOL!
