The heli moves back wards and booom.

You seem to need a bit of up/forward elevator when you go from left to right, and a tiny bit of down/backward elevator from the right to the left.

Ok got it. Doing a tic toc itself is alrady confusing. Let me practice with that and update after a day or 2.

your tail is hanging a bit, move it up a little bit if u find it difficult to correct with cyclic

Ya correct. I noted that if the tail is a bit down, the heli slightly moves back on each tic toc and the heli moves front if the tail is up.  :thumbsup: But again that alone may not completely solve the issue. Doh!  :banghead:

The suggest elevator inputs are meant to handle that, exactly.

you mean to say we should not use rudder inputs to correct it?

anwar

The way I understood "hanging tail" is that it is lower than where it should be (in a vertical axis)... and rudder only allows for correction in a horizontal axis ? :headscratch:  Or did I miss the point completely ? :)

at least for me it is more easy to correct tail in ail tick tock to keep it still or moving in a direction then mixing in elevator.

if tail is hanging down means that heli is going down but u can keep it up by give more pitch mean it will move backwards and vice versa

if it make sense?

Unfortunately I cannot visualize how adjusting/applying pitch and/or rudder/tail can help in this situation.

ok i try to explain my experiance ,im maybe not so good  to explain but i do my best  :banghead:

if the heli is exactly in a horizontal position in ail tick tock it will only move in a horizontal plane and stand still if the tail is hanging it will move in horizontal end a little bit in vertical axis mean if u get same pitch as it would hang in exact horizontal it would start to move towards the ground if your stick input is strictly ail no elevator, to give more pitch u will maintain same altitude but heli will start move backwards

atleast that how it works for me and can not say it will work for everybody, it all depends on the un known corrections we do automaticly :)

hope it make sens?

happy new year to everybody
