Default RE: The great mistake...

I never did the reversed aileron thing in an airplane in 32.5 years of R/C (quite proud of that!). But about 9 years ago I was flying two Ergo 60 helis. I had decided to try a newer, better servo on roll cyclic. I swapped out a JR for a Futaba or vice-versa (opposite directions). Since I was merely swapping servos, the change in direction NEVER occurred to me. Lifted off into a 2 foot hover, gave a slight roll correction, she goes a bit more that way, more correction...... well, you get the idea. WHAAAAAMMMMMMMM!!!

I had no idea that you could hose up a machine THAT damn much from 2 feet. No idea! And those expensine carbon blades..... []
