I want to learn piroflips so that I can soon accomplish a chaos.... Dave Storey said something about kind of stirring the cyclic.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it !!!

It was covered in a couple of previuous posts.

http://runryder.com/showtopic.htm?t...5&topicid=13041

That one contains links to even previous posts about the subject.

If you watch Alan Szabo's video that was recently posted here you'll see the stirring of the stick that Dave's talking about in the shot of his radio.

Pirouette to the left at a contsant rate.
push forward elevator go to zero pitch.
push right aileron and negitive pitch, the helicopter should be nose in
inverted.
push back elevator go to zero pitch.
push left aileron and positive pitch, the helicotor should be tail in right
side up.
The key practice, practice and practice. Good luck.

For a left rotation piroflip you stir the cyclic clockwise.

I have setup a rudder dual rate on my 9Z that when activated makes for a much slower than normal piroette at full stick. I use this for piroflips.

This way, I can put the rudder right the way over and I know that the tail will go round in a constant piro, and it's slow. Plus, I don't have to rely on my thumbs being full accurate in maintaining the desired piro rate, the DR does it for me.
