Default RE: Prefered rolling direction;any tips on perfecting the other direction

Oh forgot to add...The center of the Maneuver 2 Rolls Reversed is the center pole...and no cheating with a pause in the middle....Its roll 360 degs to the right wing comes down and hits level and then immediately as it no level flight, no pause, wing tip hits a spring board and rolls 360degs the other way....


Then you can do this same thing with 3 rolls....R-L-R and L-R-L don't worry about the box on that last one just stretch those rolls out. Make them almost slow rolls...just a little faster...Rudder transitions are the key on this practice....

I always remember Upright get opposite rudder, inverted gets same rudder....Takes some thinking...But you after a while it becomes natural....Besides Flying precision is not like a mechanical task....The inputs are never identically the same....You have to watch the model and react to it...Change the heading of the roll to fight wind, or correct a line...

Some guys practice for years and try to figure out mechically where to stick the gimbal....It don't work that way....Its more thinking and watching the model and reacting to minor little deviations before they become bigger deviations.

This stuff is Great!

Enjoy!
