Michael Wargo: How to hover low with an RC plane instruction with crash!

[@1Thatstrangeguy]

I like to hover over very tall grass so if I lose control then I can just drop it in the grass and it will be fine, Even if I land on the tail.

Loving this series thankyou!

Alternatively - if you want to hover and are a *RATIONAL ADULT* . . . buy a helicopter. And, in case you're wondering - yes, I *do* have a PhD in Applied Sarcasm.

Thanks Michael Great Tip

Dont you have to have a 3D plane to do this?

[@MichaelWargo]

Of course You can hover other types, but really this is true. With most others, it is just a clever trick and difficult. BUt with a 3d plane, it can be an artful part of your flight or routine

Do you think we well see a Pilot do this hover maneuver in real life?

[@MichaelWargo]

Very interesting question. I posted it on my how to 3d thread. Interested in the responses. I wonder if we can calculate the possibility? We would need the all up fueled weight oof a full scale extra maybe. Then calculate the relative weight at scale for the pilot. a good start would be to add a pilot's scaled weight to a model. how much weight would simulate additional weight of a pilot?

Very nice Michael. Appreciate it.

Very useful Ill be trying this out

I spent probably 10 packs trying to get a consistent hover. Took a break watched the video get what you said and was easily able to hover. Snapping it into a hover has to many things going on. But your way is almost effortless, just smoothly transitions to hover. What excellent advise thank you

Vous avez déjà vu un avion réel voler comme ça ? arrêtez de ridiculiser l'aéromodélisme !!!

[@JamesWhite-yj7sd]

would like to know what prop you use on your different video's

[@reckemroysrc3764]

And now for some practice. Thanks 👍

[@andrewmagro7703]

excellent tutorial thanks for clear and to the point explanations, :-)

[@davemineo1313]

Michael, do use use gyro's at all for your 3D flying? Thanks for the great videos!

[@MichaelWargo]

I do not use in Any 3d planes... If you watch you can clearly see I do not.
