Thanks

Start with an upright nose first CCW circle.
Then be able to do upright tail first CCW circle.
Then be able to do sideways tail out CCW circle.
Then be able to do sideways tail in CCW circle.

These are the basics. (see: From tail-in to all 8s and funnels in 6 months. Lessons 6, 7 and 11. Look also in this on flying the disc).

To then piro the circle, you change between all four of these orientations when flying the circle. Just smoothly transition between each orientation as the circle progresses. Start with slow transitions and gradually make them faster.

Remember to keep control of even a basic circle requires juggling all 4 inputs (rudder, aileron, elevator and collective). With a piro circle, you still need to juggle all 4 (unless you just lock the tail) but now the aileron and elevator move around as to which does what (based on tail direction).

Controlled piro circles are an advanced skill (like in-place tic-toc and in-place piro-flip).

Uncontrolled piro circles (simple mode 2 stir based) are not what you should be aiming for as you need to be able to fly all components to adjust for other things like wind.

Thanks a lot ArchmageAU. I'm able to fly all the orientations as you have suggested .I tried to move from one to another on the real flight simulator and it is working fine.
Thanks again

Cool banana's! Will try this as well. I might just have to enroll in that course
