Default RE: U-Can-Do 3d 46?

Towers... All great advise above!!... A flight Sim will help alot (well, it helps
most) It helped me in seeing how important it is to catch any deviation from
vertical as fast as possible.. Before it happens is even better:-)... That way
you will use "Really" small control corrections..<<Very important!!..
Having your model closer to you also helps alot... And practice, practice practice!!
Get the longest, widest prop that your engine will turn.. (4 strokers for me)
IMO max throws for hoving is not needed.. For me the key was, early detection
of deviation, very small control movements and my mind..... A good balanced
model.. vert and lat.. the stock rearward suggestion works well...

Jerry C... A YS 63 worked Great for me, But at higher elevation, thin hot air can/
will effect its performance.... But its hard to beat the pressurized system for the
inverted engine... I'm now using the S-100... and I still can't really answer the is it
better question... I can say it pushes a lot of air... Once you get the throttle control
down the "Do" will hover itself with so much more control... I myself noticed very
little difference on the weight between the two engines, The "Do" still floats and lands
great!! For everything else... Well I think my two previous crash repairs has change
the way my "Do" is flying and I'm still working on finding the "new" setup...

Well now that I did not make the final cut on my new past time... Got booted off
the last chance to make the final game table as the 90th person out of 1500:-( Think
I used up all my Karma to make the table, I finally got the necessary points to enter
the game 10 mins before the game started..... So I have more time.....

I have started putting the S. T. together..... On my choices for my other plane... I
wanted something else... But... waiting on the OMP V2 48" to be shipped after
Thanksgiving.... And trying to adjust the old "Do" to find the setup... Have fun Peeps
