It's a falling pirouette.Belt along in FFF pull up into a climb for a stall turn,apply full rudder and let the heli fall back down the vertical line still piro'ing,remembering to exit before it hits the ground or you **** yourself before then thinking the heli's gonna come apart,if it was started too high

Eat a can of beans & you'll find out!

Will, didn't you see JK & CY do Rippers with collective pumps at Shepparton?? They pulled up vertical sideways to use & gave full rudder while 'pumping' the collective. Their helis zigzagged all the way down. Insane.

You have to be careful of stopping the tail at the bottom as it can tear up tail gears! Not sure about belt drive, probably the gear off that.

Yeah Taipan, I saw it and probably even muttered something like "What a ripper!" but I didn't know what they were :-)
