My new improved modded Belt CP -- now without crashes!

[kent83]

Great stuff, and I am amazed at the bells and whistles you added to the video. Makes me want to trade in my PC! You are flying so well and you are getting great height! One thing I've started doing with the pirorettes is slowing them down. It's really scary at first, and you may want to wait until after you start doing side to side and nose in for a bit, but I'm finding it's really helping me to improve my control. Just something to keep in mind for later on. Can't wait for the next vid!

What impresses me is how far away you take the heli, most people with as few flights under their belt as you keep it really close, I think your going learn really quickly

Thanks! To be honest, I'm scared of the thing -- so the further away the better!!!

Seriously its really good practice to take it a good distance away, I learned to do side on and figure 8's close too me without crashing at all ( well smacked a blade on the my sound system in the living room) then when I pushed it across the field at speed I instantly lost it and put it in a tree, It just got very small very quickly and I didn't stand a chance, after that I had a couple of close call's before I really felt comfortable at distance,

Keep it up

Karen, good stuff! You are coming along nicely! I loved the comic book video. I just got iLife '09 a cpl weeks ago and hadn't checked out everything yet. You inspired me to make a video using that. Cool stuff. Thanks!
