I have a question, when coming back to a hover with the flat airfoil bades I have a hard time because the head speed is so slow in forward flight, even with the trim all the way up, it wobbles as I try to get back into a hover. Am I trying to get into a hover to quick or is this a flat blade problem and need to switch to sysmetrical blades to keep the head speed up?
What I do is to flip the idle-up switch on once the rotors have spun up. This will keep the head speed up and let the blades go a little more negative pitch when you are transitioning from forward flight back to a hover. Just remember that if you do crash, you need to turn this switch off and pull back the throttle stick.
