finally - inverted confidence

[hurleybt]

Wooohooo... I finally worked up the courage to hover inverted at a reasonable altitude yesterday. I hovered nearly a whole pack upside down and got as low as about 6ft. My friend snapped a pic, which I may stick on here later (work is crazy today).

Sim time is payin' off!!! Now I just need to master tail-in, inverted hovers and I'll be ready for circuits upside down. I can already do them in the sim, but I'm making myself master all the orientations hovering before I try the real thing.

It's weird, I learned right side up circuits before nose in hovering... and am learning upside down circuits before tail in inverted hovering :)

Next on my list are continuous piros, then piro flips... wooohooo!!!!

I wish we had a club here in the ATL like they do in SoCal...

..............It's weird, I learned right side up circuits before nose in hovering... and am learning upside down circuits before tail in inverted hovering :)............Maybe because it feels more like plane flying?

Congrats hurley - I'm a loooong way off such tricks - just enjoying hauling ass around the sky, trying to talk myself into basic loops and rolls - maybe summer 2008 ;)
I guess I'm more of a scaler.

Yes, nice job, I know the feeling, I was right there my last day at the club field but my helis were still tuned down, my helis are ready now, allas winter has moved in and I will have to waite, my goal for my first year is sustained inverted flight and I only have 26 days left.
