4. Advanced Sport: RC Helicopter Pilot Proficiency Program (with Oxy Flash)

In this episode we’ll be going through level 4 of the RCHN Pilot Proficiency Program. This is aimed at the advanced sport pilot and covers inverted orientations, flips, rolls and F3C style autorotations.
I’ll be flying the Oxy Flash, which is an ultra-light 700 class helicopter from Lynx Heli Innovations.

The 180-degree autorotations in 4 different ways didn't make sense to me. 2 of them parallel to the flightline and turning in to land on the spot is fine, but the other 2 should turn away? So you're either flying over your head, or landing further away, which just seems risky. Very odd.

Some of the best instructional video's this hobby has seen. Awesome stuff. The Flash is my next build, im so excited 😊 🚁💨💯💪

[@rchelicopter]

Ah, that's cool. I like that they all have numbers. What number have you got?

[@Radiofrequencyrc]

Awesome video! I will most definitely use these maneuvers as warm ups when I’m practicing for competitions or funfly shows

[@stuartjones8869]

Great video, thanks Richard

[@HeliShed]

Great vid as ever Richard!

[@Edgecrusher28]

Love the videos, thanks for the effort!

[@rchelicopter]

No problem, hope they help.

[@Backyard_Buzzard]

grats on your flash, thats a premium piece

[@rchelicopter]

This one belongs to a mate, just lucky enough to have a play with it. It's a lovely bit of kit 👌

[@43SunSon]

good video!

[@ndiwww]

Just what im looking for, thanks alot 👌

[@toncsirc]

Seems like fun, there are definitely some things I'll be trying sooner or later, once I actually get to go out flying again. Overall nice video.

[@rchelicopter]

Thanks @toncsirc. I expect you to be at level 7 next time I see you 😀

[@toncsirc]

​@@rchelicopter I'd be surprised if I got to this level in the next 2 years😅

[@PaulGondras]

Awesome video, as always! 😁👍

[@rchelicopter]

Thanks again!

OXY is a good heli, but personal think, it's too expensive, not very friendly to newbie

[@rchelicopter]

Not newbie friendly? Why's that? I don't know much about them, this was literally the first I've ever seen up close and got to fly.

[@43SunSon]

@@rchelicopter Oh, I am trying to say, oxy is a good heli, but very expensive to fix it. People who just started flying may crash the heli many times, and that cost could be very high.

[@HeliShed]

It's not a beginner heli buddy - not by a long stretch. Try an Oxy 3 ? @@43SunSon
