First Circuit..

[Midnight Sun]

I've not flown the Raptor for a week or more due to weather and work but went to the field today and managed my first ever circuit.
It was a left hand circuit which started off nice and clean but got quite messy by the end...but it was a circuit and I didn't crash.....new pants for the gibbering wreck in the corner please !!!!!!!!!!!

Well done!

Good fun innit?

[HiltonSteve]

Well done, i remember my first circuit feeling too...

Also remember my first fast inverted landing, wont forget that in a hurry!! Had a Phoenix flight sim moment and forgot that it actually costs money to put the heli back into working order, thumbs went the wrong way and so did the heli!

Keep at it, it only gets better and more frustrating from here!

[LipolyGone]

Well done mate it does get easier but you still end up scaring yourself every now & then but thats all part of the fun I reckon.

I've just re run my turn on Phoenix to find out why the second half was so messy... I must have pulled in too much up elevator to get the tail around more quickly. I can fly nose in ok in the hover but must have panicked as she was coming from three quarters nose in on the move, never having seen her from this aspect whilst moving.
Mayebe I'll try it a little slower next time..
