Learn How To Fly RC Helicopter (HOVERING - Rudder & Cyclic - tail in orientation)

This video demonstrates how to practice rudder and cyclic control while the tail of the helicopter is pointed towards you. Try to keep the helicopter in a relatively small area.

Please SUBSCRIBE so you see it as soon as it comes out.

e-mail mikey@mikeysrc.com if you have and questions.

This is part of a video series teaching you how to eventually fly full function 6 channel RC helicopters.

The plan is to start you out on a coaxial helicopter, teach you the basics which are broken up into easy to learn and practice steps. Once these skills are mastered you are ready to move on to a 6 channel helicopter.

When I shall try to hoover it for my first time, should I take the trim of the throtle all the way down? and if I spin the main rotor by hand, how should it feel?

Thanks =)

[MikeysRC]

@Penton7 Yeah trim all the way down for starters. Rotor should spin about 1 revolution with a gentle spin if the motor / gears and brushes are all OK.

[Penton7]

@MikeysRC Thank you for your time. is it bad if it feals kinda like spinning a gear? Greate videoes by the way :-)

[MikeysRC]

@Penton7 A little bit of "roughness" is normal. The teeth of the motor / gear are straight cut and are not completely "smooth" Also the pull form the motor magnets will make if feel choppy when spinning slowly. Glad you like the vids. Tell your friends about MikeysRC =)

what countrie are you from because you say huver. you have to say hover! Oh an :)

[MikeysRC]

@NoelL5351 What grade level are you because you typed "countrie" when it's spelled country.

[MikeysRC]

@isaacrocks131 Yep...that's how you teach stuff.

is there anything i can do to a JXD drift king to give it more of a kick when its going left/right on the cyclic.

would a change on the gear size help?

[Crzynoob]

@MikeysRC Thank god for simulators.

I dont think this could be done by a beginner with a single blade setup like the blade 120 sr..at least I dont think I am that good enough to do it in such a small space; coaxials are easier of course where single blades seem autonomous

[MikeysRC]

@turng You need to adjust the rudder trim.

hi Mike thanks for the helpful video, I do have a question, I've just bought my first RC Helicopter and when I hover it the whole body of is in a constant slow spin. Do you know what is causing this?
