'Adam'?

[Cralis]

So, I start a Phoenix session, and some guy called 'Adam' joins. I never took notice, as I was trying to hover still.

Then, I see something going on on the side of my monitor. This dewd is doing chaos JUST off the ground! Couldn't believe it. Tick tocks, flying backwards and doing barrle rolls... the lot! Lands, takes off, straight into an inverted hover cm's off the ground... Amazing control!

So, I jokingly says to him, 'I bet you can't hover nose in...'. So he chuckles, and hovers in front of me in all orientations, then does the same thing inverted! No wobbles... dead still!

I was way impressed. He wasn't a showoff as he said he was still learning, and though he had a way to go.

Personally, I thought I had just seen the UK champ mucking about. The control this boy showed...

I asked if he entered 3D masters and all that, and he says he's not good enough.

WHAT!?

I just watched....

Then, did a few left to right passes, and he said I fly very smooth. I compliment I will embrace, as coming from him... it was pretty good.

So, if you see this Adam guy, watch him. Impressive....

Not sure... maybe he's a member of these forums??

Fantastic R/C heli pilot!!

[jimbob]

Perhaps it was Adam Turner? I think he can do nose in....

[Cralis]

He was battling to keep a stable hover... so if he's a member of these forums, I can maybe try help him out...

I think you will find thats adam boon... boony on here.

Ade

[Cralis]

Is he REALLY not good enough for 3D Masters? I hear you're pretty impressive with a heli yourself, Ade.

[Ashley Davis]

what you see on a sim doesn't mean it can be done in the air with a real heli......(if only)

[Nutz]

Remember the sim is just a sim, on M/S flight sim I can land 747 with ease in really bad conditions................do you think it would be the same in real life?

[bluesy]

Nutz: well an A321 is allmost the same, but then again, i trainned on the same sim as the pilots ;-) and is a licenced flightengineer on that model, might give me a slight advantage (hint: i know how to use the autopilot during landing and only fly manual when we are cruising)

This "Adam" that is talked about, im sure i have seen him a few times to, very kind and helpfull, he took time to see what i did wrong during tictoc´s, its no where near perfect, but then again, neither is mmy nose in hover hehe.
