1) Auto into the wind (every little bit helps).

2) Keep the heli level on the way down, DO NOT dive it!

3) You can tell a good auto by where your collective stick is when you're done. On a 60 your stick should be at your normal hovering position (allows a margin for error). I suspect on a 30 any stick travel remaining would be a good thing.

4) If your heli fell over and there wasn't any damage your blade speed was WAY to slow.
