Remote Control RC Helicopter

Remote Control RC Helicopter: Flying your RC Helicopter is not quite as simple as it looks. We have all seen the pilots when were newbies and thought that looks simple. Then you try it on your own remote control RC Helicopter and find out to your frustration, that it is not simple after all. Follow these guidelines and we hope you will be up in the air and in control in no time. Before we start, it is traditional for other pilots to share their experiences so get there and ask, ask, ask and ask. Simulator First Following these guidelines when using a simulator will improve your performance in real life. There are many unexpected things you will encounter if you do nothave a simulator that are not listed here. I can not stress the usefulness of a simulator enough.

You may think they are expensive, at 160 to 230 dollars, but I guarantee you they will save you that much in parts as well as time learning how to fly.

� The simulator is not a game. Each time you crash could end up costing you hundreds of dollars. Yes, it is going to happen and it is fun some times to see what you can make it do, however, do not get into the habit of watching the helicopter fly into the ground. Fight it to the end and try to recover as hard as you would if a thousand dollars were riding on it. You are trying to form GOOD habits here, not bad ones.
� Do not let the helicopter hit you! This is a habit you definitely want to avoid.
� Do not let that helicopter get too far away. Even though you think it is too hard to see just because it is on a computer screen does not mean it is any easier to keep it close in the real world. This is definitely something to work on.
� Ok, so you can land your helicopter in the sim now, but can you make it land where you want it to precisely? Work on this.
� Ok, so you can make it land where ever you want to, can you make it land pointing any direction you want it to? Work on this too.
� Try flying with all the trims slightly off center
� Adjust the trims at random and get used to it, then do it all over again.
� Move all the sticks like crazy all over the place until the helicopter is in a precarious position... then level it out as fast as you can
� Turn the wind up to 10 mph and repeat all the above
� Turn the turbulence up to 10 mph and repeat all the above
� Practice flying from left to right back and forth, then practice flying in and out without hitting or flying over yourself

The autorotations in CSM are way way way too easy. Do notrely on the practice to help you in a real event. To help you get close to the difficulty of a real autorotation, go into whichever configuration screen has "blade drag ratio" and double it. I think it is at .22 by default, set it to at least .44
