With Vstabi autos are easy. The difference is that as the headspeed slows the cyclic authority stays high, unlike a traditional flybar where cyclic becomes mushy as the headspeed slows. This allows for very responsive aerobatic autos.

Hello

Autos are very easy with a 600, lots of disk energy to work with.

Actually the stability is crazy. I fly off really rough ground, and have had some rough sliding autos that would knock over a flybar heli, but the disc on the Vstabi heli stays horizontal. Plus I don't worry about bending the flybar if I ever did tip over Just ask Cptnsnoopy, I slid one across some tire ruts in Phoenix 2 weekends ago.

John,

Do you think your comments here apply to larger size helis with bigger and heavier main blades?
