    Ouch! A lesson learned I rekon - hit throttle hold long before it gets that far away!

    (I was expecting to see a picture of one of your helis in a tree again after previous "incidents" )

    What do you mean it got away from him, radio problem?

    the thing is the guy has been flying planes for quite a while, so he tends to fly it that way, when he does big loops he doesn't adjust the pitch from positive to slightly negative at the top of the loop and it dont look to good, everything seems to be at full pitch and trying to learn inverted hovering at 600ft away is not good, he lost orientation and it just went from bad to worst, took 10 mins to find the heli lol.

    Guys,

    Well, what can i say! And what a forum entrance. Hands up here, it was me.

    Just sat down and cleaned most of the mud off and for the life of me, can't figure out how it got on the insides of the frame. Also just done a damage parts count and must have got lucky, skid struts / boom / belt / 1 delrin swash-grip / main blades / tail servo gears / main&feather shaft / both batteries and a canopy. Not bad for a afternoons work .

    Looks like i'm going to busy this week rebuilding this and my 6hv that went in the other weekend, doing exactly the same, inverted !! Oh well back to the sim.

    Lots of sim practise mate, i think slowing down your flying style just a bit would really help with improving, the man can certainly fly planes though, that thing was moving at some speeds looked really good and can see how you have trasfered the plane flying to your helis, are you gonna be there next week?
    Thx Ross
