been wonderin trent... how hard are those things to fly?

[STATUS]

hardest thing i have ever tried... the raptor just got a make over as it had a terrain interuption (crash) flew it all day then had a brain fade and well blades and shite everywhere quite a pissa

[inasin]

awesome machine mate, how much ? and where did you get it ?

[VB-]

where do you normally fly? my mates bro in law is really into that stuff, got a few choppers and hes built himself a jet too. think he fly's over at altona?

as for how hard they are to fly, i've tried on a very realistic simulator, with the proper remote control, and i was offered $1000 by this guy who can really fly em, if i could hover it for 10 seconds.... thats how hard it is. and no, i didnt get the money

[Haysey]

can you adapt them to bring you beer? or hit people in the head?

I have a copterX black angel (trex 450 clone - all metal and carbon). Amazing little thing. Fun to build

and satisfying to tune for smooth running.

Still learning nose in hovering, although I can do circuits and stuff in the sim.

i fly alot at the shop A/H there is a air bit of land around here (until the buildings get finished) My carpark is pretty good on weekends too.

as for how yeah, the $1000 dollar deal could even be $10000000 as ive offered guys with a similar bet and all fail, im pretty average but usually can fly long enough to empty tanks but even i stacked it pretty hard just before xmas

I bought an RC helicopter about a year ago and it only survived 2 flights both with pretty bad stacks. I'd love to repair it and try again (possible now I've got my own house) but fark it's hard. Any tips?

Yeah. Buy a simulator. (Phoenix or Realflight) connect up the dongle and your radio, and do the hover exercises until you can do figure 8s and hover nose in!

otherwise you'll just keep crashing and buying parts to repair it.

Everyone has a different experience but I took months of occasional sim use before I got it all sorted..

read the helifreak forums and watch the training vids they recommend.

if your heli isn't a quality one learning will be harder, it won't fly right to begin with!

Yeah cheers, that def sounds like the best way. There was a good book too I was looking at about rotary flight or something I should try and track down again as well. Might pop into the local hobby store and see what they've got sim wise as im sure even with the initial price it's cheaper atm and i can do it any time. My little copter is a Venom Night Ranger 3D. Not that best but better than some of the cheap ones I've seen.
