    Are you comfortable flying in all orientations? I don't think it is worth trying anything until you feel at home whichever way the heli is facing or which way up it is. Im presuming you can fly backwards circuits with ease if you are trying funnels?

      i'm ok with the orientations, but backwards never tried, might be that's the reason, i will work on the back circuits

        learn to hover them, for real and in the sim, and the pieces will fall into place eventually. The problem is, most likely it's much more difficult than you thought (can you fly proper circles? If not you'll have to pick that up along the way. A funnel is a side-in circle). The old-fashioned "learn to walk before you run" comes to mind.

          I know how to hover, I do figure 8 but I didn't know the backward. I want to learn the circles? Are the same than funnels

            I meant, hover a funnel:
            The heli moves very slowly (hovers) along a circle, with the nose (tail) always pointing towards the center of the funnel. You can then gradually increase speed. But don't be surprised if it takes many days to make any real progress. There is no such thing as a free lunch...
