Just getting the confidence to move from the hover to circuits and all seems to be going well. However I notice that when flying into wind the raptor seems to be a bit unstable in the elevator trim.

When it seems to be trimmed OK then next circuit could cause the heli to climb or decend this all with the same throttle setting.

Is it anything to do with the head speed or is it just a matter of continuing to work with the trim.

If it was an aircraft doing the same I could check balance, downthrust etc, but this is a totally different animal as you all know.

don't change your trim from hover to ff, transitional lift causes the heli to climb into the wind and descend away from the wing, you can't trim that out! fly the heli with the cyclic and use the pitch to control climbs and descents, also easier with a govenor. c-ya Ron

What he said I did change my FF trim from hover trim just to make FF a little easier. Now I have to hold the sticks during brief hovers to keep her steady. Just rudder and cyclic. But flying into the wind will always give you ups and downs. Just make sure to have some extra room.
