Hello.

I know that probably all of you have you tail control like when the tail stick is moved right, the tail goes left..and nose right. I am flying the oposite way and for me this seems the right way.

Many of my friends are hasseling me and want me to change style. I have asket them if there where some practical advantages to do it their way. Nothing so far has come up, but maby some of you people has some good reason to fly it like that.

The reason that I like my style is: The tail is longer than the nose, and it is much easyer to se if it moves in flight. My eyes are on the nose ofcourse, but I look at the heli as a front and back rotor.

Are you still hovering? I'd change now because if you're flying around and making a big turn you'd have to move the tail in another direction then your sticks.

Rebil,
If the way you fly is comfortable for you. Then do not change. I know several pilots that fly the tail of the model instead of the nose. They have no problems. One of them as even finished in the top level at the World Championships.

Only reason your friends might want you to change is because you fly in a different style than them. Don't change your flying style because your friends want you to change.

Thank you for good reply.
Actually it's very comfortable flying like this. I do loops and big turns and it is no problem. Think I follow your advice, and keep my configuration. :smokin:

I'm not in hoover anymore. The stick is moving the same direction as the tail and it works fine. Your way of flying is tail-stick moving same direction as thenose.
