<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">You can do knife edge safely at 3-5 m altitude with gyros on even if you have just 15-20 knife edge flights as all your knife edge experience :-) </span>

</div><div>I'm already doing knife-edge at 2m without gyros, in all kinds of wind, so what's the point?</div><div>
</div><div>I still don't see the OP's point on using gyro during a snap. What is the expected benefit or outcome? </div><div>
</div><div>We have guys at the field who try shortcuts to basic skills all the time. They eventually come to grief and get out of the hobby. They lacked the perseverance to learn and appreciate the hobby. </div><div>
</div><div>Don't get me wrong, I use technology as much as anyone. But I try to understand its impact or results before using it. I have been flying helis since gyros had springs
and thus understand their effect when on and off. </div><div>
</div><div>In fact, heli fliers have a saying: 'The best upgrade you can buy is more fuel. '</div><div>
