Got my 3D inverted to the weeds for the first time this evening!!!! My buddy I was flying with was freaking out. I'll try it again and get a pic this time if I can get him to calm down! He was joyful and terrified at the same time. Only because times are tough and he knows it will probably be grounded for a while if wipe it out! I also started getting some where with my chaos attempts. Good way to close the day with the sun setting! Temps are in the mid 80s but its still humid as hell. Better yet I will mount the flycam to it and post a video regardless of how it turns out!!

Good lad, and if its anything like the feeling i got the first time i held an inverted hover, you will remember it for a day or two!

If it doesnt move and its meant too... use WD 40. If it moves and its not meant too...use duct tape!

Congrats helinelly!

I had a bit of bad luck Saturday afternoon. I went to the club and two minutes into the flight the engine mysteriously bogged down while I was pulling inverted at the top of a big high speed loop. I lost alot of head speed and the heli started yawing out of control. I had plenty of time and altitude to get it back but the engine wouldn't respond so I ended up putting it in the ground tail first. No big deal it wasn't that bad just the the usual, boom, drive shaft, main shaft, spindle, blades. The only thing that bothers me is that this is the second time that O.S. 91 sz hp has flmaed out on me. I should have it back together by friday and will give it a go again.
