BoneDoc's 3D Clinic - Episode 24: Lomcevak / Crankshaft

Hi Guys, welcome to another 3D clinic with Josh "BoneDoc" and my lovely wife Inn. This will be our last one stateside, as our family is moving to RAF Lakenheath in England.

Wow! Best RC tutorial I have ever seen! I love the overlay with the sticks. Genius!

I too am confused by your maneuver. It's cool how for you it's all about the entry. You do like the first quarter of a roller right on the stall then just floor it and hold the down elevator and aileron in. The rest of us attempt to hold the tail out with left rudder in a situation like this. But all you do is pop the tail out once with right rudder and half roll from there and just know that once it's spinning the centripetal force will hold it out for you. Too cool. I've learnt to do knife edge spins pretty good, but I could never get a plane to crankshaft like that. Will be trying this next time I'm out. Way past cool. :)

Wow. This is a lot different than how I do them. This is really confusing. For me, I always do a half-roll to the left, then slam the LEFT rudder and down elevator & once it's in the spin I can mostly let off the aileron, only giving minor inputs for correction. I see here you are pretty much holding left aileron through the whole rotation while using RIGHT rudder.... this is really really confusing. It's like you are doing a Sullivan snap, but it looks like a Lomcevak. I am perplexed. I'll have to try this next time I'm out.

The rudder should be in the same direction as the roll
