Practising efficiently
Heli flying is difficult.Nobody would seriously try to learn playing the piano without a teacher or at least a book.
Unfortunately, with helis, this is the norm - there are a few instructors out there, and taking lessons can help a lot, but for most of us this isn't practical.
We have to become our own "trainer". My main intention with this site is to provide you help in "becoming your own trainer", or getting better at it.
Now I don't have any step-by-step instructions that are "guaranteed" to work:
"Learning Kaos in three easy steps", doesn't it sound too good to be true...
What I've got is a lot of ideas and suggestions to point the reader in a direction where he -may- find "something" that works for him or her.
Some people tend to do the right thing intuitively, others are better off taking a very systematic approach and "baby steps".
There isn't much to say about intuition. But I believe that systematic training can take anybody to a pretty high level, if the person is motivated, disciplined and blessed with infinite patience and fuel money.
Have a look at the Justin Jee video, at the age of four:
A miracle? Extraordinarily talent, no doubt.
But did you notice how systematic he is flying? That's what I find so amazing: the fundamental 3D moves, as from a textbook.
Few grown-ups are able to fly this structured and organized.
