Just want to know anyone count how many crashes they have before mastering the hover, circuits, and 3Ds. Post any horror storys you incounter before that fatal crash. Luckily TOUCH WOOD I only crash once during mastering the hover, Tail boom strike. Pull too much backward stick during landing ..WHACK OUCH. Man that got to hurt.

Learning hovering... crashes. 3rd totaled the heli. I got no further with that one.

Fhuber do not use all of the parts you bought from me in learning to hover again.

Learning to hover 1.
learning forward flight 1
learning nose in hovering 0
learning flips, loops, rolls and easy part of 3d. 3
learnig auto's 0 sp far!

Learing to hover the training ger broke and rolled the heli over.
Forward flight was easy until I blinked and lost the heli in the sun. Found it under the grass.
In learnig flips I learned that it is a MUST to be in idle up mode before going inverted.
The auto's I started doing were from 3 feet so I had lots of blade speed.
