Default 3D Instructions

Hello,

I have been dabbling in the third dimension and have become decent at hovering and waterfalls, but what in the hek do I call some of the crazy stuff that I am doing? It is definitely passed stall and driven by prop blast so I think it is something close to 3D.

OK, here's the question. Is there anywhere I can find definitions of some basic 3D moves and possibly some suggestions on how to do them. I realize that things will vary from plane to plane, but it would be nice to have a starting point to learning some new manuevers.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated,

Tom

Go to Horizon Hobbies web page and there are some articles by Mike Mconville. I will try to post the link once I find it.

I assume you are not in the Houston area, only becasue I am sure we would have hooked up before this.

There is a group of us in Houston, that get together on a regular basis to fly 3D. We fly at different fields around town. If you are within a few hours of Houston, you should join us.

You can learn more in one hour at the field that years here on RCU.

This Sunday, we are planning on meeting at Space City R/C in the northwest part of Houston. There is a big bird at Scobie Field this Saturday, so if you have a Big Bird, come over and fly and Sunday we can go tear it up.

Can anyone point to VHS or DVD video's for teaching 3d? I have Knolls and Jason's, but I would like more if they are out there.

Thanks!

Rob
