Hey guys. Today I went a little further with my 450. I increased the height and flew around. I even switched to Idle Up and thought to try a flip, my hands started sweating and I got cold feet (is that the right expression?).

Also brought to the field my faithful 4CH Walkera (V200D01) which had attached the keychain toy cam that my wife gave me as a b-day present. Video is very shaky, I know yet the experiment worked out.
Both landings were succesful.
The day was super cloudy and cold so I didnt take pics..........we managed to improvise a barbecue tho, he he.
Cheers.

Some great flying there, very smooth. I know what you mean about doing yoru first loop, it's nerve racking lol. You will get there though. Make sure to practice on the sim and practice your bail out moves.

Thanks, Tony. I think I did a little better than last week. The heli is responding very well to my commands. I's got the right ammount of sensitivity. Gonna try some hovering around without expo to see how that change feels.
Still working on the sim. I ordered a spare interface cable to try.
Cheers

I made a foam board mount that goes on the brim of my baseball cap, and holds my ipod/iphone.
