Mean looking canopy

What is your feedback on the heli so far ? And how much progress on the maneuvers ?

No flying in over a month!! Been really hot and windy here...

Man, your heli is looking very S**y!  Any plans to sell ? Just kidding 

Just to update, been doing good with the trex600. large fig 8's with good banking turns at both ends, stall turns, pirouettes, autorotations etc etc....infact my heli flamed out at about 60 feet in FFF and I managed to bring it down nice and sweet so am quite thrilled. videos soon!!

Cheers

Waiting. What do u mean by flamed? 

means engine shutdown ,this word basically used for jetengines not for piston engines where excess of
1)Fuel flow without enough oxygen to burn inside the combustion chamber ,fuel comes out the engine and burns outside.
2)Sometimes this occurs even if engine running out of fuel! or bad & blocked fuel nozzels.
3)Compressor stall which will lead to (1) point and even when FOD occurs (foregin object insertion).

example of flame out due to bird strike

"Flame out" in field speak means "engine quit mid-air"   That is where autorotation skills come into saving a lot of money

Thanks anwar....yes we do use "Flame Out" or "Dead stick" on the RC field for engine quitting mid air. However, 'Dead Stick' isn't quite apt for helis since the stick is quite alive with the collective for autorotating
