[exiged]

Did my first proper attempt at cutting the grass this weekend and the 600 almost didnt live to tell the tale!

I'm not satisfied grass cutting unless the blades are completely green

[exiged]

my undercrackers were brown after,is that good enough for you? lol

[Mr.Brown]

wish you all the best for all your future attempts at grass cutting

I'll post a pic of my blades tonight. Not much left that isn't green! Lol.

What's the best size heli for grass cutting? I'm only doing it on Phoenix at the moment, but I thought there would be a ground effect, but can't get it on the sim. It should make grass cutting a bit easier. Perhaps there isn't much ground effect over grass until you've cut it?

[Sharpedge]

Depends on how much you want to spend fixing it when it crashes

[Steve]

I get too low every time I crash, without fail. 100% success rate.

Amateur !! Nothing less than mud on the tips counts !!
Lol

Seriously though it's a good party trick but I soon grew out of it.

Do a perfect backwards inverted eight , that will impress me much more, still green blades are top fun . Lol

Its about knowing where the grass stops and the dirt starts on these party tricks.

One of mine from a while back.

Ive only ever experienced the ground effect with fixed pitch helis.A nice 600 is great for grass cutting as its cheaper to fix than a 700!
