Today I took a step further in my heli piloting. I thought that it was about time that I took off my home made training gear and be a man!
Over the past few days I have been hovering about in my back garden, using an old glossed door as a helipad because my grass is rather long. I was a bit shocked at first because as I spooled her up the tail flung to the right and mowed a load of grass! I was not expecting this because obviously the training balls caused enough friction to stop the heli spinning at spool up.
In the air, though, I was loving it. It's such a liberating feeling knowing that I have progressed enough to not feel the need to use training gear any more.
Just for a laugh, here is a picture of me flying my heli with the training gear over the weekend. My face says it all...
Cheers.
