I know that im no expert RC Pilot , but i have flown more than 50 different planes and a good few helicopters so at this stage i should have a reasonable grasp of how to fly most aircraft. This AutoGyro has me stumped. The first crash i put down to using too much aileron throws, even though i didnt recall doing that, however as we all know in the heat of the moment maybe our fingers have other planes, lol. Big thanks to so many of you that have offered advice on what i may be doing wrong so this video is the second attempt at flying very gently, using as little aileron input as possible and just getting comfortable with the controls. The first few minutes are promising until i notice a habit forming that will show itself in the next few videos that i have on this issue - thats where the V2 seems to develop some type of gyroscopic force that no amount of stick input can compensate for.
At the time of the crash i was flying on approx 75% throttle and had been steering mainly with rudder but a point came when she did not respond to any inputs. Just to eliminate transmission problems i will swap out the receiver, but i dont think that is the problem . It will become more evident in the next video when the V2 passes nearby and decides to implement the 'slow roll of death'. You will be able to see her slowly banking to the left and importantly it should show the ailerons completely positioned opposite to the roll in my attempts to compensate - to no avail.
I confirm correct centre of gravity - no dislodged internals - balanced blades - very little aileron throw - i understand that in some of these 'crash' videos it looks like im using excessive inputs but i can confirm that i am not doing that, so i would appreciate all guidance possible from my fellow friends - Big Thanks
