where can you download models for FMS
Nice Moves, zfloop, just getting to practice these now,
is this a video game ?
@zfloop
Thanks, I will give it a try and keep practicing.

Basically once you get into FFF you keep the heli in the turn with the elevator and adjust the height using the aileron and speed with collective. It ends up being a balancing act between all of those controls that keep the heli at a constant speed and height. With practice it will come to you. First you will be able to groove it into a turn and hold it and then you will be able to adjust it. It takes some time to learn.
Good luck! I’m glad you liked the video.
Chad, I really like your lessons. I have much to learn. I have been flying for about 3 months with tail-in and side-in hovering and very basic FFF. Can you tell me how you can control the forward speed so well with the heli? Every time I try, the heli goes scooting off full speed forward. Do I need to add positive elevator or less collective, or both? Thanks for your help.
