Wow what a fantastic day. As some of you guys know Darren from rapid rotors has been unwell and not training. Well today he took my mate Chris and myself on for some training only 3 hours (1 for Chris and 2 for me) as he wanted to go easy to start with which was cool with us.
The guy is amazing. In 1 hour he got Chris from bounce, bounce crash on his heli with training gear to take off hover about and land without the gear and with confidence.
Myself in 2 hours I went from basic hovering to side on, nose in static hover then on to 90deg stop hovers to flying circuits. Not only that but also recovering when it went wrong without even thinking about. In fact it sounds strange but a couple of times I was flying about and asked him if he had control and he said no I was flying. I know that sounds weird but because you are buddy boxed and following the stick movements automatically your flying without realizing it. It's hard to explain until you have done it.
I really, really, really, can not rate Rapid Rotors and Darren highly enough. £35 per hour using all his kit and fuel, but the first time he caught my dumb thumb when nose in paid for the whole day.
Thank you and welldone Darren glad your back.
PS. I would like to also thank my girlfriend Julie for the best and most useful present of at least the last 5 years.
