      Those Flybar heli’s are very easy to fly… inside a large room, with no moving air. But if there’s more than just a little bit of wind, they’re about useless. The gyroscopic function of the flybar is always trying to keep the rotors level. That’s great if all you want to do is Hover. But if you want to travel in a direction other than Up or Down, you need control of Pitch. And that’s difficult to achieve when the flybar is constantly compensating.
      So when wind starts to blow you off course, you have to yaw into the wind, and pitch forward as hard as you can. And unfortunately, those types of swashplates just don’t allow for enough pitch authority.

    Hovering was a constant battle for me until I hit 20 hours or so. Not that I was bad at it, but it took a ton of focus and active trying the entire time before that. When flying helicopters, everyone has the same experience: You fight the controls for a bunch of hours and then at some point, it just "clicks*. Like your brain finally creates the nueral pathways required to fly overnight. I went from standard fighting the bird (Robinson R22) around the 20 hour point and then went to fly the next day and suddenly felt like a hovering master. It quite literally happened overnight. It wasn't until after I talked to my CFI about it when he told me yep, that's how it goes, and that's around the normal amount of seat time it takes to happen.
    So even if it feels discouraging at times, like maybe you aren't getting the hang of it, just stick with it. It'll click at some point and you'll become one with the machine.

    I found the real deal much easier than the RC version specifically because when you're sitting in the aircraft you have positional and directional reference. With RCs it's all over the place depending on which way it's pointed. Also the feedback you get from the controls is a BIG help.

    I had a similar experience to Jimmy with a helicopter. I was already a commercial, instrument and multi engine airplane rated pilot. We were doing some major work on our Twin Beech and there was a helicopter at the same location. I took a 15 minute flight in the helicopter. It was one of the most confusing things in aviation that I ever had. None of the flight controls worked the same in the helicopter as it did in an airplane. For example. you push forward on the control stick. The airplane goes down, but the helicopter goes forward. That was the one flight I took in a helicopter. I am glad I had the experience, but did not do any more helicopter flying.

And with real helicopters, when you take off, and the revolutions of the main blades is set, with the proper engine revs’, its collective, torque and stabilise with cyclic..

    You cannot expect to fly a small classical configuration rc helicopter without a gyro stabilized tail rotor servo. Then you stand behind it and you try to feel the yaw control having put the helicopter on a slippery surface. If you are satisfied, then you try to hover. Skid extensions also help in that stage.

    Jimmy that was awesome job. I ran a highlead yarder it had 13 levers two foot pedals 3 brakes throttle and a whistle you talked to the crew with signals. The guy who taught me said you get this right you can fly a helicopter it definitely is the ultimate multitasking lol

    Great job Jimmy. You are 1 of the two percent that can coordinate all three controls and perform a hover in less than two hrs of training. Big pat on the back to you from me. BobP CFI Helicopter.

    My flight instructor told me if I wanted to learn to fly a Chopper, you need to forget most of what you have learnt on a fixed wing.

    The problem with the RC was you didn't say "Clear Prop"!

    Full size is easier....be cause you are inside the ship and can feel and see whats going on. That's how I learned to fly full size. Started with an RC model and survived that...lol. I transferred to helping me fly full scale Bell 206L

    I am lucky enough to have flown a 'Twin Squirrel' a couple of times (obviously with my pilot owner beside me). From what I remember flying a helicopter is 'a dance'. You are always making micro adjustments & at no time are you static. But then you feel the rhythem & & it just flows... Boy did I sleep well after those flights...

    Good job mastering the real thing. I can imagine the helicopter requires you to forget all you know about flying a plane.

    Its because your input seems delayed in a heli. Cyclic is like balancing a marble in the middle of a plate. It rolls one way and you tilt to correct, but the marble (heli) still needs to slow and stop from the preveous input before rolling to your current input.

    • @bevangibson8105

      Try a marble on glass, servos in each corner. That's a cyclic control, without all the other controls mixed in as well.
      Full 6 degs of freedom control it's fun and rewarding once mastered. (Power, Lift, Torque, Directional Control (Cyclic)).
