I flew 3 batteries in each heli today!
Took 'em both 30 feet high or more, flew beautiful, they fly almost identically!
Fookin' awesome!!!!!! I am so pumped!!!!!!!
Did side to side flight, tail in side to side about 50 feet each way!
Recovered from a couple of minor mistakes because I was high enough!

Thanks Dude! Cool
Is it normal to have to adjust the tail a little in hovering? They both move just a hair in either direction, I tried playing with the trim a little bit and it would go just a hair in the direction I trimmed it to.

Hey Troy, I don't have much experience with 450 size helicopters but what little flying time i do have with them i have yet to fly one that the tail feels "locked in". Scott could give ya more insight to this.

Some say (and I won't say who) that flying a heli may be the coolest thing you ever do with your clothes on. Keep it up, Troy.

The 450's are far more locked in than the Blades. Like anything else, the larger the aircraft the more stable it is.

Scott's almost right
Flying heli's is almost the best thing you can do with your cloths on
But Flying an ultra light or hang glider really is...!
