Default RE: Inside rolling circles

That should have read... "I am sure you haven't had to play with a sim in for awhile" but I think you got my point


Ya that's a pretty interesting way to land.. I saw a guy (cant remember who) do a blender to the ground and roll over within feet off the ground with just enough time for the wing to clear and land a QQ 102" Yak. Personally I dont have ones that size to be thinking about stuff like that haha. That's one area where the sims to do lack.. planes still float a bit too much.. but it taught me rolling circles in a couple nights and I really like being able to hammer a move out like that.

Unfortunately it is useless for lines or anything of that nature. A foamy helped me learn rudder very quickly.. sim helped with molre advance moves and learning rolling circles both ways. Although the inside roller is still an issue for me.. I can kinda of do it one way but not the other

Lucky for me it's a ways off before I will be flying 2-3 times a week again... so I have all winter to practice.
