Brilliant! Thanks for that!

Your flying seems pretty top drawer to me hustler Must be smashing through those walls atm.

The wall for me is orientations. It was bad enough just learning the upright and inverted ones, now I've got all the edge on orientations, and I'm trying to learn them with left and right piros too. And while my upright piros and piro flips are getting a lot tidier, I haven't been practising inverted piros enough and now they're starting to look sloppy.

Too many variations!!! My brain hurts!

Dunno, Ben's tree seemed pretty real to me

I've never hit a wall, a tree once, and the ground plenty of times. I tend to fly away from buildings

Ah but after that and forever more the tree was there... in his mind...lurking around every corner waiting to strike. Poor Ben, the tree will never go away, will those wounds ever heal?

Something that worked and still does for me is to imagine, I'm a thumb flyer. That my right thumb is on the head button and that my thumbnail is the dark area of the canopy. Regardless of upright or inverted tipping or rolling your thumb mimicked on the Tx stick is the cyclic movement. Slow controlled piros and moving the Heli up and down the flight line, or in a circuit also helps

Very interesting Dave. I will have to give that some thought.
