    For me crashing is a problem (thanks @Crash Heligod) . The most i have flown in a row without crashing is 13 flights. What is your record?

      How do you accumulate a couple of hundred flights? Thats normally a life span of a helicopter for me!

      Thats what I like to see @Ozzieheli1 ! You like to push the boundaries - fly in the windiest conditions you can!. While you are at it, you should start learning to piroflip in these conditions. I find this really separates the men from the boys! Dont use the progressive techniques the @HeliGod Father and @3D Heligod talk about. Go full cowboy!

      Im a beginner.
      I used to stack my blade 400 every few flights.
      Bought a 6hvu. Had a minor bingle at flight #20. Now I'm up to flight 149 no stacks. Thing is 10 times easier to fly! Love it.

      Well, a new pilot must crashed in his maiden flight. If not, then he is lucky or genius.

      Haha, just stacked
      So that makes it 132 ~8 minute flights. My luck ran out.

      Well yes @JakeSutho it has been along time between drinks. Such a pleasure to meet you - finally! If you didn't mention your impressive flight record, you may have still had it!

      Jinxed myself haha..
      Rookie error too.. Got the lappy out, changing tail gain. Short break, back out to fly. Forgot to change flight packs. 5 mins later. LVC kicked in. Didn't register that that was the reason for power loss, hit throttle hold and had a bit of a bouncy landing. Tipped and boom (strike). Minor damage.
      On reflection, I had a lot of time, but at the time, there was no time.
      Another lesson learnt.

      Getting a night rig together. @Crash Heligod, we may meet again soon. Lol

      Jake.
