Practice, part 2
Try to move the helicopter purposefully to predetermined stop points on the
ground in front of you. Fly not more than about 2-3 inch off the ground during
these maneuvers.
If you really master this exercise, you may fl y higher now.
Now you will have to learn to hover, i.e. fl y stationary above a predetermined
point in front of you. If you really master this maneuver for at least 20 seconds,
You should try to slowly move the helicopter into a predetermined direction and
than stop by going into a hover position above that point. Use duct tape as mar-
kers on the ground.
Now descend out of the hover position and land the helicopter. After mastering
this maneuver you may proceed by attempting your fi rst circular fl ight. Under-
stand that your directional control is reversed when the helicopter is fl ying to-
wards you.
If you have successfully accomplished this maneuver, you earned your fi rst
wings. You are now an R/C Helicopter pilot. Congratulations!
We are wishing you endless hours of fun with the Lame helicopter.
