Tail in to all 8s & funnels question
So I started doing ArchmageAU's training program a few days ago. I'm using the heli-x sim hover training circle.
I just got my first 0 resets session at 100% speed, 0 wind, medium circle, heli-x collective. The original article doesn't talk about the heli-x circle size in the progression rules. So what my next step? Should i reduce circle size to small, or take manual collective control first? Also, should I do the small circle before starting inverted? |

In the version of Heli-X this was done on, there was only one circle size (medium). Stay with the medium circle and add collective. (You will be glad you kept the medium circle ) My opinion would be to reduce circle size once at 100% speed, collective control and no crashes for 2 consecutive sessions (one CW and CCW).

Oh I'm not doing inverted yet. This is upright. 2nd question was should I wait to get 0 resets on small circle upright before starting inverted.
Or is medium circle with manual collective good enough to start inverted? |

"buckle your seatbelt Dorothy 'cause Kansas is going bye-bye". Just remember to intersperse upright sessions with inverted (otherwise you will get inverted and upright will disappear for a while). Look forward to hearing how you go.
