1st flip

[junior10]

i finally went to the ball park so i had some room, got some distance between the nano and the ground and started doing back flips and holding it in an inverted hover. it was great to be able to flip it and not crash ass end into the ground.

I was trying that today as well. I discovered that front flip were far easier, give it a try next time, I was practicing at eye level without crashing, I'm pumped!

Yeah forward flip for me too was way easier to do than a back flip. But once you get it make sure you practice back and side to side as well so you don't just learn the one way.

Congrats on the back flip success! Try to give it a quick pitch pump before elevator, helps keep it stationary like a big bird while doing flips. It can be done without a pitch pump but while learning it helps quite a bit, also works great with rolls.

Congratulations.

I find if you give pos pitch just enough so it slowly goes up it helps, collective managment is key to keeping it flipping in a small space.

Just ask my walls they will tel you how bad mine is lol
