Learn to Fly 3d RC Helicopters

WoW, Thats a lot in such a short time .. it's only been live for like 3 or 4 days
Well first of all I am assuming that you know how to fly inverted and normal figure 8s.. You must have orientation down pat before trying any of these maneuvers for real. Now Rainbows will be one of the first of what I call power moves and they can be relatively simple and deceptively difficult at the same time.

Firstly I recommend that you do the rainbow at an angle away from yourself. So if you panic the helicopter will not hit you. Safey first.

Watching RC cars smash themselves to pieces is rather amusing. The best crash is at about the 2 minute mark. Damaged about as much as a very high headspeed 700 sized helicopter stack! Good times.
I am a field rep for Spartan Avionics, and I can help answer any setup questions you may have. I am based in the US though, so my replies may be slightly slow.
As I live in Perth, the winds are generally very strong.

I noticed that on a simulator, when setting a strong wind ( 40 kph / 20 knots ), it was challenging to take off using a normal flight mode, however, taking off using idle up or a higher head speed made the take off much easier and cleaner, along with hovering.

Has anyone tested this characteristic in real life?
