| Nose in HoverHi Folks,
Be very very carefull when learn nose in hovering. I learn nose in hovered within my 3 weeks of learning experence with my 30 size kyshow concept SRT with Roto trainer pod on was chasing me. I run and laid down flat with my face on the ground while my Heli flew passed over my head, if I did not laid down it would chopped my head off, very lucky I did not get hurt also my heli was not damaged either, it landed at about 10 feet behind me perfectly. Scared me to dead so I quit (This is happen in mid summer back in 1996) Now in my local have more heli flyers, so I am back again. Since I got rit of my 30 size heli, I bought a 60 size Skyfox in December, 2002 and start all over again. In the past two months I CRASHED my Skyfox at hi-speed
of turning nose in at about 100 feet high and lost control, I try to flipped180 degree to get tail in and when down sideway it is totally lost.
What I save is the engine, turn pipe, and electronics. Well I am not give up yet, any one can do it. Why could I? I bought an other Skyfox and a 50 Raptor so at this time I will use my raptor to be my trainer instead of the Skyfox until I do better. My friend Randy, keeps telling me go get a cheap 30 size heli for your training if you crash it wouldn't be too expensive to repair, well that is true. I get ready to learn more nose in tomorrow with my Rappy 50. Always, stay alert it doesn't matter what you do your life is always first, if you think you lost control and will be danger to life please shot it down before too late. I rather lost my danm Heli than I or some one near me can get hurt.
Best regard,
Charly |
