The only one I've been able to find advertised is in the Tower Hobbies catalog, Pg 280. It's "Milt Aerobatics Video" featuring Chip Hyde. Is this video worth $29.99? Are there others? I have the Basic Flight video, and it was okay, though dated, but I think they're expensive!

Franks video is okay, but not great. It covers the basics of his set-up for a Carden 35% CAP, and then shows him doing some 3D manuevers. I've not seen Jasons, but heard it's better. The Ballet of the Skies and TOC videos are inspirational (there's some awesome fliers out there!), but they don't cover set-ups nor how to do the manuevers. Dave Patrick use to have a group of 3 videos called "Wring it Out!", which covering Basics, Advanced & Hot Dogging Manuevers, but not 3D. They were great at covering how to do the manuevers, and reviewed plane set-up before they went through each manuever in detail & slow motion on the sticks. Prop Wash might have them available, or know where to find them. I still think the best advice is to get out & find someone that's doing what you want to do, take your plane, and talk to them. If there's no one in your club, try making a road trip to a contest or fun-fly.

I think that the Wring it Out videos are good for learning the most simple 3d maneuvers, but I personally like the Jason Shulman video the most. It was very impressive and if you are looking to learn how to do these maneuvers, its great.

I'm looking for more of an instructional video than a demonstrational one. It doesn't really have to have all the 3d moves either, just the stuff you'd find in a pattern or toc program. Where can I find the "Wring it Out" series? I've done some searches, but nothing suggesting where it can be purchased.

If you are looking for instructional video then the Jason Shulman video (Defying The Limits) is the way to go. He explains very well every 3D maneuver and share some useful tips.

From: Center of the Flyover States,
Chip Hydes "Milt's Aerobatic's is fairly good and probably worth the $30.00. It is laughable that the producer chose to have a picture in picture of Chip's transmitter while he does his magic as he had the most nervous, switchy hands on the sticks. They are impossible to follow. But Chip's narrative as he is flying does describe what he is doing. He covers a lot of the basic aerobatic maneuvers and even shows some "bad" execution of some. I periodically watch it and then go to the computer simulator to practice.
The "Wring It Out" series (3 tapes) by Dave Patrick is probably a better buy. The picture in a picture of his hands on his transmitter is good. SOme of the same manuevers are done by different types of planes such as the Ultimate Bipe and the Extra 300. I have tapes II and III, chosing to skip I as being too basic.
Both tapes have filler which is of no real value to give you your hour's worth of viewing.
My 2Cents.
If you have a computer running Real Flight G2 you can download videos of submitters doing IMAC routines. Once downloaded you can select the picture of the transmitter with the sticks moving along with the aircraft. Quite a nice feature.
