UPSIDE DOWN FLYING.........

Could somebody please,.......tell me what the stick/control inputs are to correctly fly inverted? I'm learning on a flight simulater and just can't quite get the job done without smashing into the ground!
Thank you...

Ok.........


First of all. Keep practicing, don't give up. You'll get it. I've peen practicing inverted in the sim for WEEKS, and I'm just barely starting to feel 'in-control.' It's taking me much longer to learn inverted hover than it did to learn upright hover. Try practicing some loops and rolls too.

For tail in inverted hover:

Throttle/Collective: Reversed
Rudder: Reversed
Aileron: Same as upright
Elevator: Reversed



Nose in:

Throttle/Collective: Reversed
Rudder: Reversed
Aileron: Reversed
Elevator: Same as upright


If your sim has the option to slow down (half speed or less is good) use it. When trying to figure out stick movements for a given orientation, I find that going slow helps a lot.

Try Helisim if your sim doesn't have that option.


Good luck

Like 4n6 said, practice practice practice. If you get in trouble.. drop your stick to shoot up and flip upright. Try to save yourself even if it's ugly. =)
