Default RE: throttle adjustment issues sudden altitude drop

Shani,

There are numerous next steps and Heli's. But I'll suggest to you what my local hobby shop (LHS) did for me. I thought I was pretty good until I heard his advise. He said; until you can fly your Heli in the house and do figure eights and fly frontwards and backward, your not ready! Then when I got to that point I went in and said I am ready for my next step up to which I had been eye-balling a Blade 400. He then said nope! Now you need to get a Flight Simulator and work with that until you can fly those Heli's and remember that every time you crash on the sim your SAVING $300.00!!!! I did so and found he was right. After 30 days on the sim I then got my 400. I have to tell you, you can go faster in this cycle, but whats the rush, unless you have unlimited funds consider these reasonable steps most of us have taken. To be clear...........a sim is not mandatory but it sure will help you and more over save you a whole passel of money.


Good luck in your decision
