Hi All,

I've had a Twister V2 for about 3 weeks and have been using it for about 40
minutes each day. I can make it slide around the floor ok but seem to be
unable to fly it. It changes direction so quick I can not correct it.
I know helicopters are very hard to fly by their very nature but seems the
learning curve has flattend off completly,

Any advice please

Roger

you need to get it higher of the floor pretty quick as its harder in the
ground effect but it does help if somebody makes sure its more or less
in trim before you start, as you need to be able to fly to trim it and
it needs to be in trim for you to fly it a sort of double edged sword
and I found with my honey bee it was better to start off on a carpet to
stop it skidding around and then go straight into a hover

Another recommendation is to replace the carbon fibre blades now with some
wooden blades or if you can get them, some plastic blades. I found out what
they were worth the hard way and upon my first hover I did a very good job
of destroying them. They are nearly 3 times the price of the symmetrical
wooden blades here in Aus.

Cheers
