Default RE: e-flite mini edge 540

Getreal,

Was that you with the "first flight with the Blade CX" video, posted on 11/23/05?

If that's you, your doing fine. Loose the training sticks. The little electric heli's are "fidgity" so they will bump around a good bit, especially until you get the feel for them.

Now, start practicing side in hover, and slowly move to nose in. For a quick bail out, just do a fast tail rotor turn back to tail in. Always add collective/throttle when you get in trouble....

So basically, a good bail out is turn the heli with the rudder and add some collective/throttle as the same time.

Have fun, they will teach you a lot. The next step is doing slow piroette (sp) turns, while keeping the heli in one spot.
