Do you have your tx set up with a flat curve and linear pitch in idle up for the sim,

Then it's a case of getting the balance of flipping the heli while at the same time going from pos pitch to no pitch to neg pitch as you get the heli upside down

And as you say practice followed by more practice and then a bit more

If you want Tony we can go online later and play, if you have the same version as me.
I don't have the new version, because mine is a copy and cant be upgraded to the latest one.
I'm on V4 not V5. Let me know.

Think I will boot the pc up later this evening and update the sim, not been on it in quite a while, but could use some stick time,

If I am on I will create a session

I didn't know you had the Phoenix Sim, Tony! I'd love to meet up with ya and fly/crash, lol.

Inverted flying is definitely easy......for those that are experienced, lol. I can do it pretty well on the sim but that's because the fear-factor and cost factor isn't there. With my helicopters, the inverted flying is very minimal....but I am progressing.

Anyway....especially since the winter months are well on their way, my flying is probably going to be very limited and I'll have to rely on the sim more. That being said, I'd love to meet up with anyone and have a Hangout Fun Fly. Yes, there is a time issue since most of you (Lee, Tony, Marius, Kev) are 5-6 hours ahead of me but we should be able to work that out.
