RE: U Can Do 3D
Got out last weekend to "test" the cheap ***** bearings I put in from VXB,so far they are fine,about 15 flights.(OS 1.08) I learned a few more things while trying to step up my 3-D a notch. Rolling Harriers:I now hold full left ail. ,work elev. up/down and also work rudder l/r and need some throttle management if it goes too fast or too slow.In all, its very tricky to keep the nose up to stay stalled, I have to stay at the right throttle setting to keep it in Harrier mode or else it will climb or the nose drops to level. I like to use the elevator to make the circle,if I pull up when the plane is entering knife edge, it turns better than using rudder when its upright. The other thing is prop selection for hovering.Too much prop and it will climb too much even at lower throttle,I round the tips of a Zinger 17X5 and even cut 1/2 " off to get the quick spool-up,this is a must if you want to drop lower in a hover and still be able to pull up quickly,I had it bobbing up& down at will,now I want to H U C K I T on the deck-maybe next weekend.
