    The video is great. I haven’t seen one yet that is able to also capture the collective. I’d love to see the pedals, the cyclic, AND the collective at the same time. Thanks for sharing!

    So you would want to crash then. If you are not apprehensive of the risk, you would indeed have a very high chance of crashing! That cyclic is so sensitive trust me, I’ve basically flown the bigger version of this in a lesson.

    Why is everybody complaining? Sound works fine

  5. cdcomcard Says:

    thanks for the comment. There was sound but I had trouble with my BoseX headset and it all came out garbled, which was a shame as my instructors comments were excellent training.

    @xxGH05TX Well im sorry to tell you but you have to have some fear otherwise you are just a recless pilot…..

    if you look at statistics….you might notice that helicopters are safer than planes…safer than cars….safer than walking in fact. what you should really fear is iatrogenic death (when doctors make mistakes). Iatrogenesis causes +- 225,000 deaths per year in the United States. About 115 people die every day in vehicle crashes in the United States.

    @cdcomcard i think its more like an change in torque
    as you move the collective

    jop!

  11. crferrara Says:

    @stevebailey69 The left pedal is actually to pay off the torque of the rotor against the fuselauge. (sorry, english is not my native tounge). Anyways, the pedal raises the angle of the tail rotor’s blades, causing the helicopter to change directions in low speeds, taxi’s and whatknot. When you are flying up high at about 70knots, you barley use your pedals do to the horizontal and vertical stabalizers.

    This is the ultimate revenge machine say girlfriend or somebody else pisses you off. Just hover over there car and start throwing out paint filled ballons. That’ll teach’em lol

  13. cdcomcard Says:

    @stevebailey69 That’s correct, I can’t remember the wind speed on that day but it took a little correction.

  14. cdcomcard Says:

    Flare!

    what do u do in it muster

  16. xav233 Says:

    thanks

  17. cdcomcard Says:

    @xav233 , it may look it but it’s just the camera bracket movement. It’s mounted on the headset hook which on the R22 is quite flimsy.

  18. xav233 Says:

    it’s a shaky airframe
