Default RE: Beginning to Torque Roll

For me, torque rolling is the most exhilerating,puckering,heart thumping thing to do, especially when down on the deck. I've never used a sim or electrics, but with glow I'm always on the throttle, almost never stays put for long. Its as necessary as any surface movement for control. The thing about TR'ing, it can come on suddenly and you have to struggle to catch up, especially when its just starting to fall a little. You dont always know how fast its going to roll, thats the exciting part for me. After some time you can stop it from TR'ing with right aileron, that adds another dimension to it. The giant scale guys around here rarely TR when they hover, they use aileron to stop it, I can do that too, but when its breezy, it makes it pretty hard to stop TR.
