Circuits

[leokat001]

Hi all,
I have been trying to fly circuits in all orientations. The problem is I can't seem to get them to flatten out and be more circular . Any thoughts ???

Sim or IRL?

IRL you have wind to cope with.

I also recommend adding gusty wind to your sim practice (so you learn to direct the model at all times, not let it drift).

If you fly the disc, you need to imagine what the tilt of the disc is required to provide the thrust required to maintain speed, shape and height. This is why simple circles are not that simple after all.

Most of the hints I have on circle shape and size are in the "From tail-in" sticky (lesson 6).

Thank you !! I was dropping the collective in different parts of the turn . Got it sorted out now and now I'm doing upright piro-circles .
