    Yes I was watching @Manyc pull off consecutive piroflips yesterday. He has been working on these for some time now and making fantastic progress. Today was the first time i saw many consecutive well formed piroflips performed at a descent speed as well. Congratulations! - welcome to the piroflip club!

      Well one thing I used to aspire to do when I was at the stage you were.... aim to Piroflip continuously for one whole pack! Use your 450 or something not so expensive, keep it high and give it a try! Its un-nerving to start but it really helps you progress. Slow it down, speed it up, learn to control it..

      I can hover a whole pack... If my heli piro flips it usually indicates something went wrong with hovering .. lol...

      Great to see progression in this sport, always something new to aspire to.
      Keep up the good work.

      Dont worry Stuart, just work your way up, use the heligods tutorials. What stage are you at?

      currently flying forward circles and 8"s, stall turns, looks and rolls, flips etc. recently introduced backward circles. and just prior to last crash an inverted forward cc circle.
      my comment re the hover /piro flip was a bit tongue in cheek as a piro flip seems so far from where I am. however I do agree that some regular some time each day and real time on the sticks makes a huge difference.
