Hello,
So I finally got my King 2 set up to fly inverted and after practicing on the sim a little, I decided to try a barrel roll. I got it up about 25 feet in a stable hover, and then went full right cyclic followed by full negative pitch to eventually full positive pitch...The heli did a perfect roll and I was able to recover back into a hover. Feeling good about it, I decided to try it again, only it didn't work out too well and I crashed it.
My question is: Is it easier to do rolls and loops with forward momentum or does it matter. I'm thinking that had I been moving forward when I tried my second roll, it would've been smoother. Ideas?
