Maneuver List ??
 
Greetings,


Where could I find a list and instructions on how to perform different maneuvers? I hear people talking about split s's and cuban 8's and other such things. Where can I learn these skills?



Thanks
Mike B

Thank you very much, I will try those links.

I reviewed those links, but it would be more helpful to have a description of the stick movement required to execute the moves.

Did you click on the links inside this page: http://www.geistware.com/rcmodeling/...ics/maneuvers/

They offer you very detailed instructions for each maneuver. If you can do a loop and a roll you already know half of the aerobatic maneuvers. You just need to apply elements of each to a single maneuver.

1/2 Cuban eight = pull up from horizontal. allow the plane to complete 3/4 of the loop. roll the plane 180 degrees and level it off to horizontal.

This is how I first learned a flat spin- start up high:
From level pull to vertical at full throttle, once vertical pull "full up" "full roll left" "full rudder left" and hold. Your plane will snap roll while going straight up.

Still holding the controls wait for the upward momentum to peak. As plane begins to fall roll the ailerons to the opposite direction this should induce a flat spin.

To get out of the spin center the controls.

5/8, not 3/4 ;)

Your right... 5/8 = correct... :D

At least were not using the metric system / Then I'd really be confused..!
