Flameout landing demonstration His pitch setting is +-10 degrees, with 0 degrees in the middle? Is the main rotor made of fiberglass?

by the way, informative basics on how a real helicopter auto-rotates, thanks.

Not trying to be a smartass but...what is the allure for 2 stroke gas helicopters.? Am I missing something?

A few tips that I did before inverting: a.) Fly sideways b.) Fly backwards c.) Fly "other" sideways. Always fly in a square pattern, doing one direction CW or CCW first. Then learn other direction. Never "mix" or just "free fly" always have a flight plan and do not deviate. You may and I have, then you will experience a "brain glitch" and learn from that. Btw, at this point you would have "automatically" learned how to do nose down and tail down funnel turns, because it's just really sideways flying. At this point is when I started to work on my invert on the field. Also, at this point I have mastered invert on the simulator and all the orientations inverted already Now, just a matter of going for it on the field.

Thanks for all the info < Nice guys 😅

great video, thanks Bert! I'm working on these now and this helped a lot.

Man, this video is old. Yet I wish CZcams had of recommended this to me 6 months ago. Now I can go to your channel and start from scratch. Your tips for how to practice alone answering alot of questions and frustrations I've had. Greatly appreciate this content. (Where I live, there's no clubs or friends to learn from/with. I have to do all on my own.)

“Nothing technical here “ lol . Nice little rip there fella🍻🇨🇦😎 Thanks for the videos .

After these years still the best!

Having learned piro flips it helped save me a re-kit once. Some 10 years or more ago i was flying at an event in cincy on a really really windy day. I pulled the heli nose up to a stall and then hit max piro rate cause that always sounds so cool, and let it fall for a bit but as it got lower my fury90 decided to toss the entire tail case into orbit. The heli was still basically knife edge piro'ing like mad and falling. I could hear people behind me saying oh thats gonna be a re-kit (aka crash/complete loss)... i hit hold, and started piroing the cyclic and was able to level it out even though the heli still hadnt fully stopped rotating yet due to no tailcase. At that point it was just an auto like normal. When it touched down everyone shouted like i just scored a touchdown at the superbowl. Good times.

Mid/late 80s blades I used were maple center lines and balsa edges. Maple was used to make attachment strong, balsa made blade lighter. And you got a sheet of thin wrap to put over it. FYI Manned helicopter blades use gas and a piston inside for CG balance. Would be cool to see that implemented in a model.

Love your videos good tutorials indepth one thing that has helped me big time is have a heli like the goosky s1 over a blade mcpx bl2 what a difference it makes to have a machine that is so dialed in compared to blade micro . The reviews dont do a goosky or m1 justice till u fly it .

This is a great video, but Bert should never be talking on video. He's put his hands in his pocket like 12 times in 1 minute. He's so insecure. Leave your hands out of your pockets totally unprofessional

It’s always fun watching your average 3D pilot trying to hover🤣 LA 3D water bucket lift…

One of the best flying helis ever made to this day.

Is tik tok-ing the same as youtubing

I enjoyed watching and you made it easy for me to understand what has to be done in order to be successful, thanks😊

Heh, I imagine the company reaction."you want to put this in a toy? If you have the money, we would happily take the business, but, WTF?"

This is great. Thank you.

Guys at my field fly vbar and expesive SAB helicopters

Some great stuff, some things……not so much. Go small electric for the 1st 3d Heli, nitrogen is a lot of work and imho the 1st thing is get competent in basic flying. Then get a 200+ nitro or electric. @7:54 I’m glad you went to the real basics of short 10-30 second hovers to start with. I quit flying for several years and am back with a Goosky S2. It is baby steps and am loving it. Thanks for the video series.

The nitro in the beginning is sick…. Great Chopper

Wow what a trip

I love your smoothness

As far as CZcams years ago this is a much older video. But these are excellent! Glad I found them.

Very nice!

Nice piece. I have so much to learn.

Tesla will never take over.I’m just getting into electric helicopter . And not sure if I like it yet .

Idol nice pilot ? Aim from the philippines bro..

I was there from Hawaii.

These videos are Excellent. I have been flying RC planes since HS, flying Helios for the last 15-20 years. Never intense, mostly forward flight like a plane. I am practicing your vid 1 constantly but it is tough, feels like I am not making much progress. I have most success flying behind the helicopter on the flight sim. Is that ok to train?

I knew the minute she was proud of the Beer Flu Jab, She was an idiot.

Practice many sessions on sim before doing it for reals.

thanks i feel like i have this

Thanks Bert!

great demo flight by Bobby

back where it all began

Great job guys, thanks for all you contribute to RC helis!

lol, funny stuff, thanks guys. Love the behind the scenes.

Awesome, funny! Great behind the scenes, thanks guys!

Great explanation! Thank you!

Great explanation and demonstration of piro flips! Super helpful, thank you!

Awesome video! I will definitely be doing all of this and mastering it! Thank you Bert!

If you can’t do this, and that….

If you think about it, the "stirring motion" works in all conditions, whatever direction (CW or CCW) . You can very easily do upside-up pirouetting figure 8 without stopping stirring the stick (same for upside down). Of course, the rate of the stirring and the moment where you make the stick corrections change when you go from the CW part of the figure 8 to CCW part of the figure 8.

Hello I'm a old heli flybared pilot. Going to flybarless in 2023 since more than 12 years never had any rc helis anymore. So my radio is the 10C ...in my opinion back in 2010 this radio is a rock for medium Futaba pricey radio. But watching your video for flybarless seems like my 10C radio is game over. So would you mind to share or let me know if I still be able or not to use my Fut 10C radio for setting and flying flybarless rc heli? Please let me know or should I buy the 8Fg Super radio to fly the flybarless? Thanks bro

I like the very very last section it helped alot. Now its gonna piro without probelm. Thanks Guys.

amazing content

How much negative pitch from start of autorotation sequence( the portion when on the 45 degree descending slope )

Hello. How did you align the flybar blades? After all, they must lie in the same plane.
