Alan Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi all I have been flying for about 7 -8 months and so far everything going well( touch wood) . My next stage in flying is aerobatics but have limited knowledge in it, is there a good book for beginers in 3D & aerobatics to show the different types of manoeuvres and how to preform them. thanks Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi Alan, I reckon the best advice for you is in Gordon Whitehead's scale aircraft (if you can find one) It is a mine of info on scale modelling, but also has an excellent chapter on basic aerobatics..If you want to be a little more competition minded, there is flying radio control aerobatics by charles allison and andy nicholls ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Harris Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 How about a decent simulator ... it would save a fortune ... Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I use that www that Lee has linked. Cut&paste&print a stunt and take it to the patch with me. Today, "Wingtip Spin". There are also links on that page to some good 3d aero explanations. BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Elliott Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobatics_(radio-controlled_aircraft) http://www.amped-rc.com/ I have found this one useful can also be found on you tube. eg Edited By Gaz Elliott on 04/10/2009 10:05:54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Lewzey Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Take a look at http://www.wild-wings.co.uk/ There's a selection of video tutorials for all skill levels. I'll agree with andy, though; practice all aeros on the sim first before trying them for real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
