Default instruction, greater explanation of controls

RaZa, it would be of great input if you further explained what you are doing with the controls, not that your vids are'nt awesome already,although they would be even more usefull if you explained what to do with the controls. Its hard to watch them and the bird at the same time. Just a thought, thanks-Keep up the good work!!! BC

noted (and thank you), but only so much I can do. i try to keep explanations as simple as I possibly can without overbearing and confusing dictation of the controls. i try to teach people how to teach themselves, not through rote memorization of the stick movements. essentially I try to help people attain those "click" moments.

I also try to help the view a bit. if you notice I have the heli centered on the right half of the screen which allows me to show a much bigger radio on the left side of the screen.

Nice job. Now try slowing your piros down a little more. At those piro speeds it's kinda hard to figure out what corrections are needed.

EXCELLENT! Now that's what I like to see. Very good practicing! With effort like that you will end up with very good control. Keep up the great work!

Thanks.. all because of your advice.. I'll have to put more stick time into this..

Slow.. that's the key to train natural reflexes...

Not too bad, but you have a bit of smoothing out to do. Try rolling a lot slower. In fact try to only get in 1 or 2 at most rolls per circuit at first. As you get better and smoother you can speed up the aileron
