      Nice Feral... The pro roll flip (i am assuming you mean moving the piroflip in a figure 8? or loop?) means that you ave good control of the prioflip. Im no expert, but i know using the collective at the right time helps significantly!.

      My next trick is piro tick tock in both directions. I can piro tick tock left tail, but badly right tail. My ambition is to piro ticktock and change direction at will in a circle...

      I was the same... and i studied and thought about it for ages and i actually learned on an mcpx! If you can half piro upright, and half piro from inverted, its a good start.

      Yes thats a very hard part to learn. The thing to remember is that one half piro flip (which is half a turn) followed by one flat piro then one half piroflip (half turn) followed by another flat piro of one turn. If you can do them individually do it over and over and eventually shorten the time between the two. To visualize it i used to have a small toy plastic helicopter and would do the pirflip with my hands until i had a great concept in my head of how it should be performed. Just be persisten! it takes a while.

      Working on Piro tictocs they look kewl and at the moment they are challenging
      my glutios maximus but I like the challenge. It's the main reason I love this hobby. When all else fails back to tail in hovering
      Cause I got that NAILED MAN YEAH...

      I am trying to reel in right rudder piro flips, always trying to smooth out the left rudder ones. I can do some tic toc piros but not very consistent, four point tic tocs, man I had these down years ago, and I stopped doing them, and now I have to relearn them:mad:

      As always, I am trying to work on placement, I want the heli to do the maneuvers, but more important I want it to do the maneuver where I want it to do it, not where it wants to do it! I see lots of guys on you tube that can do more maneuvers than me, but they are way out of the box, and, or have no control over where the heli is doing them.
